Creativity is not the antithesis of emotional stability

Just had a button of mine pushed on a discussion list. As I don't wish to engage the writer, or take the list in majorly off-topic directions, I shall rant a little here. :-)

I am SO tired of people equating emotional stability with lack of passion and lack of creativity.

I am SO tired of people equating emotional swings/regular outbursts with creativity.

Sometimes, creative people are also quiet and centered. Sometimes really emotional people are nearly incapable of reaching their own hearts, let alone expressing themselves/manifesting anything creatively. Both reserved and expressive people can be: insane, brilliant, creative....

Done now.
