Artistic Corner

I’ve always enjoyed nature and being outdoors. It’s the only place that literally shuts me up for a few hours and just BE. The outdoors can be very beneficial for anyone struggling with depression and anxiety. The noise and constant pressure of life can be too hard on anyone struggling with their mind and anxiety. The outdoors doesn’t have any stresses. Everything gets put on hold when outside. Yes, nature could involve work especially when camping, but there is definitely something therapeutic to that as well.

Nature is definitely an art field. The Creator, God, has created nature. Many people would disagree that being outdoors and in nature as an art but when knowing the Creator of ALL things, nature is a created thing. That’s what art is: anything created. Everything in nature, trees and rivers, etc, is a form of art.

Nature forces us to pause and reflect, in a good and healthy way. That’s what we do in all museums too. We all pause and reflect with every piece we come across. Like it or hate it, that’s fine since we’re all unique individuals. It’s impossible for all of us to enjoy every little thing together. Hey – trees are different from each other too. There is no one tree that stays the same. They may be the same kind of trees but the branches and leaf count could differ. We’re all unique and that is OK.

I love being surrounded by nature because as someone who struggled with anxiety before my healing, nature helped calm my soul. I learned God’s voice in nature since I was able to get rid of other distractions around me. There are many benefits to nature and it is a great work of art.

We do not need any more corporate buildings. More buildings won’t help the scam of climate change anyway. More buildings won’t help the isolation that COVID caused. What helps society more than all these are the need to just go outside and be in nature. Parents, learn to take away the device from your child, and your hands as well, and go to the park together. I’m pretty sure you ALL would enjoy this work of art much more than a device could ever do.
