I remember a time when I was a graduate student and I had just come over to the US. Over the Christmas break I was on my way home to Germany, but spent a night with a friend in Boston. I remember vividly a moment when all my tensions left me and I experienced perfect peace. From that time on I understood the true meaning of the Christian greeting, 'May peace be with you'. Yup, it was a feeling worth living for.
This year at work I felt a similar feeling of peace, though slightly different. It was a feeling of accomplishment and serenity; finally I had created the space and the persona at work who I always aspired to be. Quiet in the background most of the time, yet, forceful when my time for communication had come.
You can always choose to express your 'creative feelings'. The Gita warns you against longing for the rewards associated with your actions, you have to leave this up to a higher authority who actually understands the interplay of all the parties that in actuality are One. What you can and should always do though, is to be the 'One Who You Truly Are'. You are the Son and Daughter of God, so please claim your stake!
