Look up to the Stars!

Aside from landscape painting, the stars interest most of the artists. And this has nothing to do with religion but merely what is written there in the stars that may influence us as an individual or as a whole. It is fun to know, of whether this is fiction or what, what awaits us in the coming of days, who is meant for us, or what lies ahead. And yes, just like any star, it is simply entertaining.

People find it fabulous to know what stars say about us. It is not just all about us that interest us, in fact but our love interests as well, as to how his fate will coincide with us. This may sound crazy to many but a lot too learn from this because for people, it feels good to hear what they want to hear or to be warned by an incoming circumstance. It may be fiction, a hearsay, but most of all, it is very creative. Stars, just as how beautiful they look like in heaven, are arts and anything about them make us entertained. They may be set too high above us but because of human creativity, they, too, are affordable art. They are arts’ favourite lovely subjects. We see them in crafts and we see them in fine arts as well like in wall paintings. Kids love them and definitely all artists who discovered their art in them since childhood had been in one way or another fell in love with stars.

Destiny is written in the stars, as they say. And many people who are looking for answers love to go to the balcony and look up talking to these heavenly bodies that appear as diamonds. And as those who are grieving will go to churches and temples, those who are smiling romantically and hopelessly will greet the stars at night and most of the time too, the feeling that prompts the hearts to look up smiling is in search for love. This is the star for all of us. More than bad luck, it gives us hope for a lovely life with someone. And when we wish upon a star, even the slum looks like a brilliant landscape painting for us. And the feeling is just phenomenal whenever we are given the chance to feel love back again through the stars. Stars are more than artworks for sale. They are clue to our destiny, at least in fiction!

Hope and Destiny

Destiny has always been a favourite subject of those who believe in it and of those who simply are disgusted by the thought of it. Of whether the notion is just a work of art like how an artist creates his wall painting or for the believers, destiny remains a controversial subject since time immemorial.

For some faced with series of battles—fated or imposed, destiny is what we count on. We believe that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that light is not just to make us realize over something done but a fruitful life, a beautiful life that will make us fulfilled. Holding onto destiny is faith too that somehow, in this journey, we will reach our destination and for the hopeless romantic at the end of that long road is our perfect match, our match-made in heaven, our soul mate and with that person, all we feel is heaven and beauty. Destiny! In the hearts and minds of both the intelligent and the fools, is hope and is always positive. It is somehow mind-setting us to go on with our lives despite wrong judgement of people over us and despite some foul play of humanity or society to hit us.

We see artworks for sale that cover destiny as a subject and when it is the theme, the art automatically touches us. We become melancholic, nostalgic,or simply we are taken to bliss, in an instant. Anyway, as many believed destiny is a journey of the souls. And because it is in our subconscious or in our deep-seated memories, destiny is felt within. It strikes us in a moment where reason is unfathomable and discernment over the feeling is quite a challenge. Destiny speaks to the soul. It leads us to the path. This gives hope to people to keep on moving to finally know what is our destiny or who is the one meant for us, or simply what is the written purpose of our life when our life is just a book written by the Greatest Novelist.

A wall without wall painting may look bare as our life without a purpose is empty. And this makes us hold onto our destiny and that each situation leads us to a perfect story of our beautiful yet to-date our mysterious lives.

Soul Mates for the Romantic Souls

Any single lady right now will not hate to believe in soul mates. Love for women is Asian art. It is plenty but it is exotic. It needs to be of rarity like one that is unique and finely crafted. Women will not look for love. Women continue living without someone to be with her, to hold her, to hug her tight while men may find this challenging.

Women can last without these because they believe of not rushing to anything where there is one soul of another person intended to make her soul so alive and happy. The beauty of a woman lies in the fact that despite failed, wrong, painful relationships, she remains happy because for her, someone is yet to come and in heaven’s perfect timing where her soul will be united with another soul and theirs will be match-made in heaven. There will be great attraction between them. There will be a pull that will make them cross their paths. It will be strong and not even an original oil painting can capture its beauty because this is sealed in mystery. It is only their souls that can discern what truly happened. They are soul mates. Love, commitment, faith will make them help each other to reach their individual destiny. Call this hopeless romantic, but for every lady out there who is hurting, longing, satisfied, happy and to those who even gave upon love already, there is a perfect match for them.

And just like Asian art, women are diverse in number but there is one common factor to them and it is that they are most sought. But unlike any Asian art, anyone who has money can afford it as opposed to women whose soul is intended to meet her destined someone, she is closed to haggling, negotiations, and compromise. It is going to be her one and only because she believes. She believes that there is someone for her. This may be humorous to some but to hopeless romantics, this is the ultimate destination of along journey. Just like a brilliant wall painting touching the heart of a viewer, the loving relationship of soul mates will inspire many lovers out there to wait for that someone the heavens has written to be with them in the book of life.

The Arts and the Power of the Mind

The mind is very powerful. It works in extreme emotion, in love, in pain, in wrath. When the mind works, it tramples down the orchestration or the connivance of many to inflict pain over. The heart and mind are not shielded with pain but this works to retaliate without fabricating foul play. As they say, it is all in the mind. It is not just wall painting that it produces but thoughts that go beyond the common arts.

The mind that does wonders is the mind, not of the intelligent academically, but as that of the creative. Creative mind can run wild, can go to the extreme, can explore the infinite. But most of the time, this takes place only in the mind of the innocent but when stopped and slapped with the consequences or when taken advantage of by those shrewd and manipulative ones, such becomes inhibited. But a powerful mind goes on without giving a hint that what is being done is already made known to the victim. It becomes too powerful that the only thing that needs to be done is to smile while waiting for the disastrous fate of the other one—no scheming will take place but all divine because an innocent creative mind is backed up by the universe and the One above it.Creative minds are the art source. These arts serve as light to the universe. When things become dark, arts give hope to humanity because it reminds us as a whole that every beautiful thing that makes people happy, entertained, support their aching emotion, their loving hearts, and their grief is created by human minds which in effect will remind us of our worth to later on restore the confidence we lost along the way.

A scheme, a mind-setting, or a foul play to cause destruction to someone succeeds with intelligent ones behind it but a powerful mind when it retaliates can melt a nation, can cause disaster, can rock the earth, can make a society suffer without them knowing where the curse came from. A person who has this is gifted. A person who possesses this gift is creative. A person who has this innate creativity within her is a talent-personified and surely a person who is as described will prefer to sulk in to tears than fight because she knows the destruction she can cause when she lets her emotion go. She is the very same one whom you do not like to be your enemy.

Power of the Mind

Our mind is powerful. Whatever we think of or whatever we
feed our mind will surprise us of how it will come to reality. It is a greater
force that is greater than the universe that will supply such desire in our
heart for us to think of it with too much eagerness, passion, and yes faith.

It is not positivity at all. We call this reality. This cannot be created by
merely orchestration as to how one creates a story for his wall painting.
Success comes in different forms. We think so much of a car.
It is in our heart. It is what preoccupies our mind and before we know it, we
have it. This is different from mind-setting. It is different from a goal. It
is yours. You are destined to have it. You feel it. You know it. And if this
thing that is yours have landed on someone else’s lap or has been grabbed
from you then it will just cause the person mishap or what others call bad
luck. Trust the universe and the One who creates it to supply you of what He
puts in your heart to constantly feed your mind because this is a sure success
like an artist who just sold his wall paintings in his first solo exhibition.
If you think of revenge that is divine and of no foul play at all or a bad
karma thrown to your perpetrators and this has been placed in your heart with
too much passion, it will be a success too in your end without people knowing how
successful you are because the physical world has defined knowledge of what
success is and it is all about material things. But once this has been
pre-empted with foul play to make it appear as bad karma or some bad orchestration
to inflict pain on someone who hurts you as your revenge, then it will
boomerang on you sevenfold.

Trust that such strong desire over something is what the Higher Force supplied to you and
that is what is going to happen without your dirty hands on it. It may sound
mysterious. What is unreal with mystery when until now our existence has been a
classic example to it? And if you state a reality which for others appears to be
negative and some people orchestrated to make it real by inflicting pain on you
and make what you said boomerang on you just to make a point, expect then that
their scheme will succeed until you profess something from your mind and from
the wrath direct from your heart and make people realize what it really means
to have a powerful mind—far from foul play just to make a point.

It is not just an artwork for sale that people will negotiate or bid for its last price to
make it a reality. When the power of mind works, there is no compromise!

The Still Life Around Us

Sometimes, it is the inanimate objects that give us life
than those who are living around us. Why not? It is not just the living that we
need. The technology gadgets, tools, appliances, furniture, wall painting, our
clothes may look still and dead but it is them that keep us alive and comfortable
to embrace life even more with zest and passion. Just for a quick reality
check, what is ‘us’ without them?

People around us may hurt us but the things around you that
are blessings from the heavens and by –products, too, of God’s creation are
meant to serve you as long as you need them.

They cannot be taken for granted. They should be loved. They should be
well taken care of not for the reason that we have worked too hard to have them
because material things are meant for us to have, to keep, to replace even for
people who have had the chance to amass huge income. But we treasure them for a
thought that they are by-products of God’s creations. The materials used to
create these objects that surround us are from natural resources that God
created and the skills and brains, talent, passion, determination to come up
with something like artworks for sale to entertain us or to simply serve people
like our home appliances are from God’s best creation—humans! From these things around us, we know that being not grateful with what we have is totally ignoring what God has in store
for us.

In fact, many would fight for these things than fighting for
the living around them. It is logical as to how people can just inflict pain on
someone, or as to how they can just scheme to emotionally torture a person. It
is very understandable then if given the choice of what to value, you can point
exactly that you want a piece of chair saved than the person sitting next to
you. When many would disgust the thought, God understands. He knows the
feeling. He would even send calamities to destroy a fraction of the population
to show how much He loved the Earth that is being continuously tampered or
destroyed. He knows that humanity has been continuously losing its value and
that a piece of wall painting can even be more valuable.

People can just inflict pain to one another, frame up their fellowmen to something bad so that
the rest will look good, harass underground to prove a point, and retaliate
over wrong judgment, and kill one another for money and power. And yes, how the
heavens would regret for the earth they destroy!

Art from the Heart

There is beauty in writing when writing comes from the heart
and not from the brain. It is like saying things without fuss when the words
just spill straight from the heart. This goes the same with wall painting when
it becomes an expression of things you want to say. And if you will just let it flow, you’d
notice too that such revelation your hands create comes from the unconscious
and as you write it your heart just pours what it feels inside.

They say follow your heart but what if your heart says so
many things and you cannot unify them all to a single desire. It is like most
of the time, it speaks of some many things that you are having a hard time to
know what it really wants. One more crux of such matter is that whatever your
heart feels can always be questioned by your rational thinking. If you are in
the right frame of mind you do not let your heart dictate your fate but as you
grow old, you will realize that every heart is a child within every person. It
is persistent. It does not take no for an answer because there lies the truest
bliss that every person deserves this why everyone needs to discover his art,
of whether this is in the form of music and lyrics or landscape painting. The
talent of the person is the medium of what the subconscious wants to talk
about. Artists whose hearts are on their original painting can simply attest to
this. The hands just work in an instant to come up with something that the
heart wants poured out. The very same goes with writing. You start with a
capital letter and before you know it, story now ends with a period. That is
how our heart works. The expression is fed to our subconscious and our physical
selves project it without letting the brain process it except for checking on
some technical details like grammar and construction and for wall paintings,
maybe a touch-up of colors will do.

Or when we listen to a song and such song touched our heart even without
understanding the lyrics, then we know our heart is connecting to something.
The bottomline for good discernment of what we really want
is to know our heart because no heart, even those that are damaged or in pain,
will betray its bearer, even the pain it brings is part of the big picture of
meeting the life God wants for us, as long as the pain being felt is divine and
not orchestrated by some group to inflict pain on you because this is damaging
and more destruction that it will give to the people who connived to hit you.
