Speaking of art, some may find it too highbrow and mysterious for ordinary people to appreciate, so they refrain from proactively enjoying it or learning about it. When was the last time you went to an art exhibition or a concert? And when was the last time you read an art book? Many people refrain from taking part in art activities. After all, in this fast-paced society, people prefer to use their time for things that they deem “useful.”
However, the majority of people misunderstand the true meaning of “usefulness.” Is having a new car useful? Or moving into a bigger house? Or getting a promotion? Can these worldly possessions truly decide how happy we are? We live our lives like a spinning top, always in motion. Sometimes, we may break down and have a fight with our partners. We may be unable to sleep in the middle of the night. We may feel empty inside after a busy day at work, and lose our desire for new experiences. In a word, we are too busy with our livelihood to take care of our spiritual and psychological needs.
Art is part of ordinary life. We can actually use art as a form of therapy to heal our psychological wounds, satisfy our emotional needs, and increase our self-knowledge. Thus, we can live a better life.
