Thinking outside the box! Darling DH is describing living inside a box and just copying what has been done before.

Exactly what you are doing!!! Your own thing...when i was teaching Arts I encouraged the kids to be creative, and that was to add something of their own!! keep on keep on!!!

What are your thoughts on being CREATIVE?

LOL YUP what Carrie Jo said only I say tell him. He can't go around all his life being so dead wrong! You would be doing him a complete disservice by not letting him know he has it ass backwards. Any chance he was just pulling your leg on that one??

I thought being creative means doing your own thing. If you follow patterns, instructions, recipes, etc. exactly you're not putting any of yourself into it, just copying what someone else created.

I believe the correct terminology here is "bass ackwards". Besides that I am not a sheep nor a lemming. Fred says, "lets jump!" Will your DH follow Fred's suggestion, or figure out an alternative route?
