ART OF MINE
by: May Joy L. Umbajeno
Art is nothing less than love.
Wherever love heats, art poses its blazing passion. And wherever the art
exists, love makes it a fashion. Their fate are twisted together in a way that
one is dependent to another. Love should display a passionate feeling to be
called as love. An art must be made with interest and willingness rather than
creativity alone. Letters make words, but with emotions it is poetry. Events
make history; give it life and it will be a story. Therefore, creativity alone
is not enough to make an art. It should have a deep foundation of love to be
called as art.
Art is a gift. It rests in each
individual inherently. But it is harness with love, which is learned over time
we live in this world. Artists are nothing extraordinary than any other person.
The gifts that they receive is nothing more special than what others have. A
sculptor’s hand molding a lustrous statue; a painter’s gentle strokes picturing
a magnificent view; writer’s words
telling stories of life; dancer’s body moving gracefully; singer’s voice
playing with melody – are artists’ skills made art by each received talent and
undying aspirations. The gift possessed can be idle if not used, developed, and
controlled. Arts don’t have to be learned, but each must be studied carefully
to discover the limitless power it brings.
Art is
anything, everything we usually do. With this, we can live our lives
artistically in our routines we do everyday. A household chores finished with
unity, a job performed with commitment, prolems undergone with hopes, promises
made with honesty, dreams built with faith, and life lived with happiness. All
of these are simple ways of living made simplier and more fruitful by the art
of love.
