The Way Art Articulates Our Lives

Art is a sublime form of communication. It is the passage in which a person's thoughts and tradition glide through to others. Via art we can travel in time to witness Hamlet pondering on his eternal question: "to be or not to be?", or even relive the everlasting love story when we go sightseeing near the grand architecture of Taj Mahal.
In fact, art contributes to our lives in the most fascinating ways. Art can give us the strength to pursue our dreams. Take for an example, Ludwig Van Beethoven who was able to entertain the world for generations, empowered by his music to overcome his hearing loss. Through this genre of art, the German musician made us hear the sound of a genius standing tough in the face of calamity.    
Art also aids us to reflect upon ourselves and our lives, for example, when we read the amazing story of Coleridge's "Mariner" and the way his luck turned his back on him when he "shot the Albatross", thus refusing to appreciate the blessings of God. But once he starts to perceive the beauty in everything around him, he reaches the shore safely.    
Moreover, the inner self can be easily expressed through art; thus helping in easing troubled souls. Through art therapy, for instance, the distressed patient can communicate more effectively with his/her therapist, eventually leading to finding the right cure for their complaint.
Therefore, our duty is to learn how to preserve and appreciate art as it does give us hope, joy and relief.
