Creating vs consuming

I want to create instead of just consuming.

That's why it's exciting to own a jewelry business. (Just got some prototypes back!)
That's why I did an "Art Swap" last month with some online friends.
...And just signed up for a card swap for December (and intend to make the cards).
That's why I'm trying to create some thank-you cards instead of just buying them.
That's why I wrote this blogpost instead of just continuing (as usual) to read and not post.

What else, my dear friends?
