Writing? how do I think most people write?

Most people see writing as a formula of expectations that need to be addressed by filling in the pages with content that reflects their intent. I see that the general population of people do their best to grasp the teachers understanding of what should be conveyed, and do their best to structure their style in the most according way. I’m not sure too much creative talent is dumped into writing that isn’t motivated by the desire of the pupil to stroke the ego of the teachers understanding of creativity as opposed to gain a deeper understanding of himself and calling certain maxims he’s encountered into inspection. Whenever a student enters a scenario that involves a teacher attempting to draw out some response in accordance with their expectations, the student writer is rarely thinking beyond the depths of his own soul. Creativity is something that is shunned in the school system. Creativity is treated like it can be taught rather that what it truly is- a mode of gathering every understanding and introducing the possibilities of combinations of these understandings existing together in metaphorical or analogical forms. School is strictly semantic constructs. Material and understandings deemed as unquestionable concrete deductions by people who’ve preceded us that we’ve accepted as infallible. Very little is seen as relative. The possibility of things existing outside the system that’s being rammed down our throats and fed to us as the only source of reality is unquestionable.
People approach the writing process in the same manner they approach everything in a system- Methodically. There is little room or time for questioning. The only creativity that is fostered is that within the limits of previous predecessors getting away with it. Straying too far from the norm causes a jam in the system. Creativity is to create. Real creativity is creating new things. Not being able to see insights already tackled. The problem with creativity in the system is that it considers things relative, and in a system where grades are allocated and a specific order is reinforced to ensure a progression of a certain type of person, creativity is something that can only exist outside that system.
