ART AND SPIRITUALITY
What is the relationship between art and spirituality? We know there is one, but can we articulate it? An artist might say he is dedicated to his art. Does that connote spirituality? Is the art his spiritual path? Many would not take him seriously – yes, one honors the artist’s choice to dedicate himself to art. But dedication to one’s work does not necessarily a spiritual path make. Or does it? “I’m dedicated to my art.” Pshaw, many would say, and, don’t take it so seriously.

Do you find yourself worrying all the time? Do you think that something bad is going to happen to you? If so, when you find yourself constantly living in fear, you need to pray more. Maybe you know of someone that fits this description, and you do not know how to handle the problem. If the problem is a serious one, you need to encourage the person to get professional help.
Regardless of whether the problem is minor or serious, you should ask your Heavenly Father to protect and keep you from any harm or danger. One way to remind yourself and others that you have nothing to fear is by writing yourself a poem on “He is There,” and sharing it with them.

Collecting various forms of art and paintings is a passion that art lovers find hard to resist. A classic piece of art can add that extra spark to the place where it is displayed. Whether the purpose is to give an aesthetic feel to one’s home or office or to flaunt one’s eclecticism, a painting can add an extra dimension to the ambience. However, the kind of art one intends to collect is a personal choice. While a passionate collector may be buying paintings to add to his private gallery, an interior decorator may suggest one to his/ her client to add to the “feel” of the ambience. Paintings are of different genres and it is up to the collector to decide the suitability of a piece of painting with the ambience where it is to be displayed. Whether it is an art gallery, home or office, the painting should be displayed in sync with the place. The art lovers know this very well and thus their focus is always on selecting the right kind of painting.

This is a great opportunity to give your best friend or mate acknowledgment for being a special person. You can say this because you know each other so well until one person can finish the other person’s sentence. What makes the person special is personality. It’s someone who is loving, caring, giving and wiling to help others.
You can explain in your own words what it means to have this special person in your life. In addition, you can let the person know how they have changed your life for the better. A creative way of explaining to your special someone what they actually mean to you is by writing a “Special Person” poem.

You may use this as a lesson plan and give it to a friend you care about. When a friend gets off track and needs guidance, you can give him a dose of old fashion wisdom. Ma ma is a hero and no matter your age, she still has a big influence over you because ma ma knows best.
The problem occurs with your friend because he knows better, but he is not willing to do better. He is not willing to accept responsibility for any of his actions. One way of getting him to recognize that he has a problem is by writing him a “Ma ma said no!” poem.

I cradled me and looked after my being
remembered Bible stories
Jesus healing sick souls
once mine.
I was so tempted
felt emotions that hummed.
I wanted to taste the moment
smell the scent
smother the lion in all who pursued me.
I touched the moon,
and then I slept there.
I thought I heard you singing.
It was way past midnight,
but I still decided to wait,
grant you entrance into my images of rain
and memories of storms.
This is a preview of
Jesus Healing Sick Souls -i Thought I Heard You Singing
