The Art of Living

Few approach the mastering of their lifetime use as an art subject. Most take the pallet that is thrown at them, carve very little, dance on thick ice, cling on tight to the song of their Fathers' - wholly wrapped in a human-nature-bound canvas.

Nature plays this trick on
us and on every other
living creature from an A moeba to a Zebra.

To understand the strength
of this Nature-pull, we
need to stand back and
see life in sections and
Art is a great momentary
isolator. One flash of a

camera and a subject is frozen alight. One flick of a switch and even a dark empty room at the Tate Modern comes to life. For some, a Creed helps to enlighten life, for others, the works of poets, composers or computer games programmers.

For us all to feel bright and brighter, we need to be exposed to the 'wonder of it all' and this means the magic of life. We all seem to like the wizardry of  Tolkein and the now legendary world of Harry Potter, according to box office records, so why do some of us adopt a lifestyle closer to that of a humdrum humanoid?


We humans have come a long way and we need to get further.

There is an art to 'being here' and 'getting there' and life itself must proactively develop that art - the art of perpetual existence - life.

Let this 'art of living' be bland for no-one's palette of mind, body or spirit, and let us continue to learn how to evolve our 'now time' into their 'tomorrow time'.

One of the favourite topics at 'B.I.G. Meets' is 'lifestyle' and how too many people, World-wide,  'end up' with a lifestyle they did not style themselves. We all adopt some pre-styled facets in life - all born of the past, but we can always try to 'go one better' in every field of human endeavour so long as creative thinking is encouraged,  rewarded and supported.

Who said 'Life is not a rehearsal'? Next time you think you have the art of living under your belt, check out your answer to this question:

"Are YOU living the lifestyle that YOU designed?"

Maybe you need a  B.I.G.  powerful creative force to gain ground for you.
