The Art of Living

Define Art that related in our everyday lives

The word ‘Art’ is most commonly associated with pieces of work in a gallery or museum, whether it’s a painting from the Renaissance or a modern sculpture. However, there is so much more to art than what you see displayed in galleries. The truth is,without being aware of it, we are surrounded by art and use it on a continual basis. Most people don’t realize how much of a role art plays in our lives and just how much we rely on art in all of its forms in our everyday lives.

Living is different from surviving.
Living involves accessing your creative self. Theart of living means you are directly and actively involved in constructing your life just as an architect plans and maps out the structure before executing theacting of building. Like wise you are the architect of your own life. 
Art means being creative and requires that you question the limits within which you actively live your life. 
Enjoying your life.

It basically means that living a life that has a meaning. It has some relevance. To be happy & make others happy. A life full of joy where we are living it up for today & not for tomorrow. 
A life where life is itself satisfied

The art of living, simply explained as the art of doing things in a much-better way, so that you can enjoy your living moments much-better. It is a socially-enriching way of your leading your own life. It really helps you to have a better living.

Art in some form or another has existed as long as man. It is a part of our daily lives and is present in cultures across the world. Art is everywhere, influencing us on our daily basis, whether we realize it or not. With the art that we are surrounded by, whether it’s a painting, music or even videos can have a huge impact on our mood and emotions. Of course some art is very dark and can cause disturbing emotions, anger or even depression but we can choose what kind of art we want to be surrounded by in our own environment at home to make you feel good. All kinds of art can affect our mood in a positive way, making us feel happier, calmer, or even inspired to do something.

Art gives us meaning. There are things that cannot be understood with pure reason—like love and beauty, to name two. Art helps us understand our world.
It does that because it helps us transcend our world. Art has the power to point us to the spiritual aspect of humans. It doesn’t answer all the questions, but it can shine a light on questions we didn’t even know we had.
And art requires something of us. At the most basic level it can stir us to gratitude. But it can also awaken the creative imperative in us. As people we have to do more than merely produce. We have to create, to express, to give life to the ideas inside us.

Everywhere you go art is evident. Parks often use sculptures to add interest and to inform people. Posters on walls give information and motivation. Music plays on the radio to keep your energy levels up. Without even realizing it we find ourselves immersed in the power of art most of the time! so that's why it is important to take some time to appreciate the art itself. Most people have an appreciation for art. They enjoy observing it or creating it, they may even support it financially or by volunteering.

Art is integral in our culture because it provides us with a deeper understanding of emotions, self-awareness, and more. That's why these are the following reasons why I believe everyone needs art in their lives.

First, It is a natural part of us. There is a drive within all of us to create and express ourselves through art. Observe any child with a box full of crayons and a piece of paper and you will see it. I believe that drive comes from a need to achieve a balance within ourselves. That balance is felt when you are creating something exactly as you wish it to be. Sometimes other forms of communication may fail to allow us to express ourselves completely, and this is when we turn to art. 

Second,  Records the emotions of society. It is important that we know our history. We learn the dates, people and places of important events, and we even learn why and how they occurred. Art gives us a different insight into our history. It shows us how those events impacted the people living them. Through art we learn the joy felt during times of happiness and we see the pain and despair during times of suffering. We see the hopes and the dreams, or the fears and regrets of the past. Through art we gain a better understanding of how the events throughout history have shaped us into what we are today.
