In this blog post we explore images and descriptions to emphasize how Artistic expression is all that is left once you have survival covered.
As stated ABOVE: The fact of continuing to live after an accident (like your existence), or difficult circumstances (also your life). Jokes aside, this is the sole meaning of existence. Once you have that what you crave most: FOOD and SLEEP! You now will most likely crave any sort of entertaining art form. Be it, films, music or pictures! ART!
Distractions will keep you/US going!. The newspaper, the latest article on your feed, the juicy info on your smartphone about the upcoming concert coming near you! Art is prevalent after survival and in fact I dare you to attempt to live at least 1 day without bringing art to your life. Mainly because art is everywhere.
Art is everywhere!
Beauty is everywhere, ugly is also everywhere. I dare you to attempt to not find art around you, and the more you try the more you will fail! Your brain will give you the life it needs to keep going (further proving my point).
Capture it!
Try to go about your day, your daily walk to the nearest caffeine shop, without capturing a mental image of something truly beautiful and meaningful to yourself! A SPLASH of water as a bird lands on a rainy puddle. A plane silently passing by the clouds. Another human being laying over a bench. ITS EVERYWHERE. and your brain knows it, and so do you!
At the beginning
all you have is to survive, you crave food and water and biological functions. Then you rest and realize what else is there. Your brain automatically pics up on the details of your bedroom ceiling. The corners of the walls with different shades of paint. How bad and contrasting.
Survive!
How meaningful our lives would be, if we had to fight to survive. how simple and how healthy our minds would be. Constantly too preoccupied fighting to survive to ever wonder all else that are our pointless lives.
The Rich are Sad.
It may seem crazy, but studies have consistently shown that suicide rates together with overall depression are much higher in highly developed countries. How can you think depressing thoughts when all that is in your mind is where your next meal will come from, or where you will sleep tonight, or simply how to get home safe.
The journey has no destination!
The journey of survival, should never end. If it does end, you will find wonder. When you wonder, your mind finds art or depression. It wonders, It wonders far as to how and why you are what you are and where you are.
Direction isn't the answer.
Direction leads to a destination, destination reveals the end to a journey. You don't want to be there. You dont want to get there, at all costs.
DREAM
You can dream. I implore. You MUST dream! It sparks a journey, it further evolves your direction. Or at least it'll make you believe that you have a direction. Everything will make sense. You have a goal, you are moving on a journey with a proper background. Music plays in the background of dreams, when you are awake.
ART!
You are alive. go out surround yourself in art! Riot against the corporate world! Start a band! Make some noise! Splash paint on your walls! Bring some meaning damm' it!
