Dancing for the Depressed


Too many reasons to dance after tears! First off, tears spare you from heart-attack. Just imagine life throwing in 10 stones in for a quarter of gold. You can bet that this is enough to be deemed as a justifiable cause of stroke. And why fall for a disease when you can just dance off until your muscles beg to rest. Dancing gives a feeling of satisfaction just like how art lovers feel when they buy art online with ease and confidence.

If one is feeling sad, chances are he or she submerges herself to pain by listening to mellow music. Psychologically, the person listens to sad music not because he is brutal to himself but because these songs have an effect that someone else is sympathizing with what the hurting person feels. These songs make him feel not alone, simply put. But then no depressed would want to dance with this type of sounds. Music has to be upbeat enough to rock their body. It has to be rockin’ enough to put them in a trance without being drugged. Life is about music. Sometimes, you control what you listen to but many times too, you just have to go with the flow when the tuner is not in your hand. But if you’re sad or depressed, let the control be within your grasp to get your heart and mind into dancing. Otherwise, someone else will grab the remote control and before you did, they will play sad music for you to dance to. And this is just simply to add insult to perjury.

 And instead of this, you’d rather dance to the one that will make you sweat and feel the intensity of passion in dancing. And this is because, it is also a form of exercise and even better than simple stretching, dancing is healthy. We speak here of being healthy amid depression or loneliness. Let dancing be a part of self-help therapy to overcome depression or even a slight tinge of loneliness just as how a paint artist devotes her madness to working on her Asian art.

Words can Make you Fall


Look how words can make or break a day of a person. See how these letters put together can make a woman fall in love. They may not necessarily be direct from the mouth of a person who tries to woe her but these can be a form of lyrics of a song or straight from poetry book. Wall paintings cannot do the same not unless the artist is too important to the recipient of the art.

If someone says I will catch a grenade for you just how Bruno Mars says it well, then you’d be prompt to look at him direct in his eyes and see if the veracity of the statement comes from his heart. Or someone who wants to goof around with you can just blabber these words and you come out laughing and yet you can say it is still entertaining. For women, flattery is lovely.  It is human nature to adore receiving words of praise of whether they are real or not. It is human nature too to simply disgust criticism and just focus on what lovely words they are getting from peers.  Words make or break a person. This is why, it good to start the day with music and retire with a song that can make you dream sweet and nice.  Lyrics or wordings from a poem can justify what you feel within of whether it is of pain or bliss, what is important is something has affirmed it to make you understand more of what you feel inside. Songs and poems just like other artworks for sale are human company. They stay with you. The words reverberate. They make noise. And the best part is you choose what to listen to. Most of the time, we listened to words that serve as our sympathizers-- something that understands us, something that says we are loved, something that affirms what we feel to make us believe that our emotion does not lie at all because somewhere out there who is singing the song or has written the poem believe in the presence of our current emotion. It gives us an idea that we are not alone. Someone out there is feeling the same, too.  It is the power of words. From them, we make-believe and because of them we hope, and sometimes we escape reality.

Falling for the Best


The best is yet to come. This is why it is hard to say that you’ve got the best because it is like stopping progress to continue running in your life. Who knows what, in fact, when it comes to what is the best for everyone. It would be better to consider everyday as the best to simply refer to something as ordinarily good or just settle to consider everything as good. With millions of artworks for sale posted online, determining which among is the best can be difficult. Once one is chosen, everything else is inferior.

Best is in the superlative degree. If someone says you are the best and he means it as not just for an idiomatic expression’s sake, then be glad because in his eyes, you are already incomparable. How many women can fall for this trap but who cares when to hear from someone important to you that you are the best matters a lot!  Our day can be extremely satisfying and we say it is the best. But what if tomorrow comes which is much better that that of yesterday? Then you say, yesterday was just good because you simply have a day that is better. “Best” is too much of a word.  Everything else is inferior if we speak of word too grandiose to use. Yet, we can call a collection as best like best of Asian arts or Best of 2011 music album. It means only of a collection that is well sorted to come up with the finest.  How women love to hear this from someone they love! Just imagine among billions of women, one will stand out from the rest only because to a certain man, she is the best. With strong attraction between couple accompanied by affirmation like this, we can tell exactly how a woman will give her all.

To say the best is yet to come is not easy for women who just fell in love with someone because for every person loving finds the other one on the road as always the best. No person is in love who does not see the one whom she is in love with as the best despite imperfections. It is not like artworks for sale that determining which is the best can be a bit challenging. For someone who falls in love, there will be no question asked that without comparison, the recipient is the love is seen as the best, automatically.

Being Loved from a Distance

It is not easy to love someone from afar whose pure intention cannot be easily confirmed, most especially if you only see the person online. In fact, you never had any clue that he knows you all along. You do not know if you are just being assuming or just plain naïve, dumb, or smart enough to know which is an abstract wall painting that is in depth from one that is just shallow.

Whatever you are, you can sense that there is someone who wants you from afar but you cannot tell who the person is and he could be too proud to, perhaps,  stoop down to you. Yet, you believe that someone who truly loves you will be humble enough to tell you how he truly feels about you. And rejection needs to be faced with courage and humility. Otherwise, no matter what He does, it will be useless not unless, the true feelings will be stated.  This is how loving from afar can really be complicated. Yet, we can tell how flattering it is to be loved in a distance, maybe of someone you do not know or someone who knows you but not in a chance you would imagine that he is aware of your existence when you consider yourself as just a piece of an affordable art while anyone can be as precious as original oil painting. Aside from this is mysterious, your situation can really be intriguing, as well. Oh, how would you just love for him to reveal himself to you! So, you and him will finally know what chance do you have with each other to start a new life together. This is how complicated is in loving from afar.  But what could we do if feelings prevail?  Of whether, it is online or via postcards sent from somewhere else, it cannot be questioned. Love speaks no boundaries—neither age nor distance can stop it when felt. It is a strong emotion and a strong one allows it to flow. But how to overcome challenges along the way when loving becomes too painful, difficult, and tasking is the issue of the matter. More it becomes a challenge when the person on the other end cannot confirm the intention of a potential lover only because information about him and what he does were hidden from her.

There might be quite a challenge when loving from a distance, but the thrill it gives makes the relationship more exciting. There should be constant communication between the two and more than anything else, identities of both should be disclosed to each other no matter how affordable art one is when other person on the other end is as pricey as rare gem.

Make Her Fall in Love

Is there really a way to make someone fall in love with you? Many can give you a bunch of roses or a brilliant Asian art to impress or to show how much he cares for you but a few can put you to awe and just one to finally catch you.

So far, despite the belief over soul mates, perfect match, and destiny, it is still possible that a man can just fall into the woman’s lap and for no reason at all, they fell in love. Something must have been done. Or perhaps, there is too much attraction between that is yet to be realized after sometime and not just over instant reaction, a few seconds after two souls meet. Some string might have pulled two souls together from afar. But to realize this, something must have been done or some situations may arise. It can’t just be love felt for just throwing in a glance to the other person. Woman may develop a strong emotion faster while man is more of a feeling of attraction. Men can tell exactly the difference between loving a woman and just simply liking her. And as for women, feelings may grow deeper and deeper but this is hardly shown not unless the man professes the same and not unless she knows that she is being pursued like how an art lover too eager to have an artwork for sale that he sees as one of a kind. There are women who are passive when it comes to courtship. There are men too who can’t move without confirming how interested a woman is to him. He cannot risk his pride and that is for sure and on top of this, perhaps, of being shy, as well. We just imagine if these two will fall in love head over heels. Both will shy away to love. But when they finally feel comfortable with each other, the least thing they want is to be far from each other. And judging from this trend of romance, when one feels that there is already an air of reduced attraction between them, it would be a race over who breaks up first over who.

Asian art is easy to have. Just go online. Specify your search. Choose. And check out your best find. Finding attraction or catching love is much more complicated. We wish it is easy but one needs to do something to get the other party or to make the other person fall in love. Without this, love will just grow within until it feels nothing anymore because it feels like love drains whatever emotion is left already.

Giving in to Bad Romance

When can you exactly say that you have been trapped to a “bad romance”? Romance may sound happiness but not all fun is healthy and not all happiness is heaven-caused. But as one grows old, no matter how wisdom he has incurred, no matter how good he has been, everyone is still entitled for every piece of evil while alive. Not all would opt for a clean looking traditional wall painting. Others succumb to dark arts, too.

If after discernment of what is right from wrong, you still give in to your own happiness despite some issues in values you still go for it then perhaps, it can be justified as long as it is not at the expense of other people. Or someone who might be hit has already received too much consideration from you and yet the pain he inflicts on you is vastness to handle anymore. Then, you realize, there is time to be slightly evil, too, and you can even assume that God will just smile back. You may want to look at your landscape painting and see God’s face among the stars giving you the blessing to go ahead. The best part of such bad romance as per the point of view of other people can turn out as the best one for you. After all, it is you who knows when to give in or hold back to love. Not all people who fall in love with you are detached. They might be emotionally detached but moral-wise, they may not be. This goes the same for you. When can you say that you are free to love when someone else, morally-wise, should be recipient of your love? If after sometime of feeling the guilt of breaking away from a promise or a contract, you still realize that the person whom you are giving your full commitment to does not deserve your sacrifice, then give in to alternative love.

And yes, this is bad romance, not in a sense that the other person is bad or you are bad but the situation you will entrap yourself to may not be as good or rather smooth sailing. Issues left and right can really be ugly. Who else to assess the situation but the people involved and not the gossiping people around. Of whether being right is against of what the others think is right boils down to one thing and this is how you finally give in to what your heart dictates and the justification you have within knowing you do not owe anyone explanation as  how artist needs not explain his wall paintings to his audience.

Fall for just little fun

Why opt to have a crush than going to the extent of falling in love? First off, it is fun. It is exciting and its expression can be just light like liking someone or just simply adoring him for a certain qualification that he has enough to make you smile. Falling in love, on the other hand, is too much to handle. The feeling is extremes. It is pain and grief. Why fall for da Vinci’s original oil painting when other masterpieces from emerging artists can make you feel light and bubbly.

Having a crush is childish. You like the eyes. You like the smile and when such smile becomes twisted, you move on to other one with a better one. However, every adult knows that crush leads to attraction. You are lucky enough if your crush will not respond to you but when he does, chances are attraction gets stronger until it leads to falling in love. And if you are not ready, you might shy away from true love and break free. Loving is not easy.  The more it gets deeper, the more it becomes painful until such pain becomes unbearable already. It is either you run from it or submerge yourself to it because once you get immune to pain, it only means that the person you once loved is not your love anymore. As they say, time to make yourself open again to new friendships, at least. And somehow, you know that it will again begin with having crushes and the cycle starts from there. But a person who has enough of strong self-control can just settle to having crushes than opt for falling in love over and over again. The self-control required needs to be much stronger than when you want to stop yourself from maxing out your plastics because you all want the artworks for sale online yours.

Who doesn’t want a brilliant original oil painting when if such art is the most expensive? But then once it becomes damaged by accident, the loss could be tremendous. And if you think you are not ready yet again to undergo a roller coaster ride of emotions that this situation will bring you, then better have plenty of crafts for the meantime.

Everyday is about Falling in Love


The best part of loving is falling in love which is not easy to sustain at all.  A couple may feel the intensity of falling in love during courtship. There is mixed emotion of excitement during this period. Along with this feeling is the thrill of romance—and yes, a prelude to passion. But then, count a few months more of intimacy and being in love to the nth level drops down to zero. And you see all wall paintings as dull and all music as flat as how you are feeling.

And yes, they say that there are stages. There are degrees of loving, or better yet use the word, “levels”, in this case. But then, no matter what level that is, everything seemed to die down after falling in love becomes falling out of love.  The thrill of romance becomes stronger the time falling in love fades away. Love becomes more mature and deep. That is exactly how old folks and the experienced say. But then, what is togetherness without being head over heels in love with someone you are with? Isn’t it but right to fall madly in love everyday with your partner until you grow old? Otherwise, what is love if it means just company? It is, indeed, waste of time to be with someone who is not in love with you and whom you think he is the least person to love.  It is like looking through artworks for sale to be happy and you bumped and you fell for something that will just stress you out for years. The best part in life is to love truly, madly, and deeply and everything else is just an add-on.  Yes, as we mature we realize that there is something that life will miss if we do not follow our hearts. In this case, we declare the freedom to love at all cost. Being stuck with someone who doesn’t love you and whom you do not love at all is sickening. This applies to people who are with you but who always seem to go against you or totally against you. As they say, life is too short.
The wise are right. Leave them or let them go. You do not need stress in your life when you can just live life to the fullest and loving some people who deserve your love and attention. Yes, it has to be that way. Give the people the freedom to love, to hold on, to move on and to let go. The sad part is, morality may be at stake. But then, after you held on too much to values and you still end up realizing that the sacrifice and commitment to a relationship is not worth it, then you know very well then you already have God’s blessing to love and be loved again, and this time with the one He wants for you. And truly, you are a perfect couple that all paint artists want to be a subject to their wall paintings.

Friends and Falling in Love


Friends! What makes life exciting with them is that you are one heaven sure that even in madness, they are with you. They are there to tap you when things are getting overboard but they won’t just criticize.  As long as they remain as friends, they are like Asian art for keepsake, so rare but of brilliant quality. They are the same ones that you can count on that whatever floats your boat, they’d just be on a ride.

They are not the ones who will subject you to emotional torture because the moment they do, you know very well that it is time to part ways. It is a clue that you both need to move on and let go.  This is why no friends are permanent. They come and go. But then, the moment with them is precious. Something you do not want to forget. It is happiness without judgment. But then of course, it becomes different when they are already being used against you, then you know a friend is someone who perhaps is just an acquaintance or just a company for a time being. The key is not to expect much because as people point to thousands as their friends, only a couple or add some more are real ones.  It is like browsing for thousands of paintings online and you only see a few of original oil paintings. Despite such fact, people are always in search for a true friend—someone they can trust and someone who will last. And as they say, true friendship between a woman and a man cannot be real. It makes sense because true friendship can even go beyond the emotional attachment two lovers have for each other which means with such over flowing of emotion, we can say that there is already attraction going on between the two.

A man who is emotionally attached to his girl-friend is in one way or another has romantic feelings for her. Standards-wise, she may not be the girl of her dreams. She is not her Asian art that looks exotic and brilliant. He could be too proud to just stoop down, but he can be emotionally attached already and only him knows how much he cares and loves this person whom he calls as his friend. This happens most of the time while woman treats a man-friend a real friend because hypocrisy of what she feels is something she cannot endure. The guy would feel somehow that the woman whom she thinks is just a friend is already in love with him.

Long Distance Relationship—does it work?

Is long distance relationship possible? How long will it last when everybody needs someone to hold and someone who will do the same for her? For women, it is like an everyday staring activity at a wall painting wishing that it will talk back to her. Thanks to internet and other means of communication but when two people are in love, it is a fact that you want each other to have and to hold.

Young love or mature love only hates the fact that the other person is out of sight. Work may be an excuse but seeing her or him before they retire for the day is enough of security that they have someone to hold on to. Now, long distance relationships survive through the internet. Communication is instant as opposed to before that each party needed to consider saving for phone bills or better yet, they could you use postal mail and wait for weeks to get updated as to how each had spent their days, weeks, and months. But now, dating is easy.  Showing how much you care for the other person is not challenging at all. It can be as easy as browsing for artworks for sale online. Making the other person feel secured that someone is right there for her is simply amazing but loving romantically without being with each other physically is maddening. All the more that trust and commitment should be embraced. Yet despite all these challenges, couples who can make their love grow day by day in a long distance relationship have promising lasting and loving relationship but it is also needs to be noted that some couples may even get used to loving their partners via online communication that it will be awkward for them to see, to love, and to hold their partner in the real world, meaning “un-cyber”. She would rather then settle looking at wall paintings and feel the depth of love that is more of in her mind. Everything then becomes just a story for her, a fragment of her imagination.

Long distance relationship happens to many. Those who met online know exactly of the situation that they will face but it is quite a challenge for those who started courtship in a physical world, had been together for sometime and part ways for some reasons like work. Missing each other is heart-crushing at this point and learning how to get used to the new system is like learning to emotionally detach oneself to the other which, somehow, not loving is all about.

Addicting Music Videos

There are music videos running for a few minutes that you cannot trade for a full movie of three hours running time. Nothing beats a brilliant performer on his vocals, dancing, and showmanship which is acting per se, rolled into one. Add graphics and effects, and you find yourself playing the MV over again for hours like getting your eyes hooked to an artwork forsale you see in the nearby store.

Graphics and effects add wonders. We can just imagine these videos without them to be dull and flat. But then it is the performance of the artists that matters big time. Listening to the song is different from watching music videos or staring at a wall painting. One may find the song addicting but he or she may not be entertained with its official video. Or this can be the other way around, you may not like the song but its video is just captivating. Contributing factors to overall quality of mv’s are as mentioned-- graphics, effects, and concept of the video. But then, these are all trash if the performance of the artist is not great enough to captivate the hearts of the viewers.  What are mentioned are just adds-on, it is the showmanship or the artistry of the performer that counts a lot. Leave the kind of Michael Jackson alone and a cameraman to capture the performance, and we can still assume that the video will be a blast untouched with graphics and special effects. It is the artistry that goes beyond singing and dancing and others more.

It is the passion, confidence, and innate talent of the person that makes a music video not just a song in motion.  The brilliance of the music video is in the face, the eyes, the twist of the lips, and the movement of the body in sync with the rhythm that make the viewers hooked to it. You see the passion in every angle of their facial structure and it is like a wall painting in its details from the style, to the brush used, and combination of colors to create a certain effect that will appeal to the emotion of the viewer.
