Creativity has many meanings to everyone. In my opinion it is one's ability to be able to think out of the box and out of this hemisphe of conventional thinking and to create something that is theirs. Whether it is in an altered or regular state of consciousness or if it is of an artistic, or philosophical sentiment, I think everybody has a bit of creativity in them. In this chapter I think the high points for me were of the paranomal, transpersonal psychology and creativity. I have always been interested in the spiritual aspects of our conscious well being. I wonder if the spiritual experiences are "illusions and delusions" and how the whole aspect of religion, spirituality, and the paronomal connect. Somehow I find my self drawn to the possiblity of phenomenons like precognition. After reading this chapter, I can get a clearer view of the subject matter.

I tend to perceive consciousness as evidence that we are alive. It is evidence that we are aware of our well being, surroundings, and our awareness of the whole world in general. One of the high points in this chapter for me is the concept of one of our sensory organs which is our sense of smell. I wonder why animals have such a keen and unique sense of smell and also what the concept of pheromones has to do with puberty and sexuality. I liked section of our consciousness on the topic of guessing. The author talks baout it been percieved as a " sixth sense" in which our consciousness is not awareof in this realm. I wonder if I had that ability whether I would have struck the lottery.
