My Daughter Has Always Been a Creator

My daughter has always been a creator. She loves taking one thing and using it to make something entirely different. When she was younger, she used to cut boxes up and make them into houses for her dolls and her pets. She also loved making things out of paper. I was often impressed at the intricate things she created, such as DVD players with movable parts. I never would have guessed, though, how she would end up using this gift. She became a DJ. She found an old dj mix kit when she was a teenager, and it wasn’t long before she realized that she had a passion for creating new music from old.
