Monday’s quote – Picasso
“Why do you try to understand art? Do you try to understand the song of a bird?”
Pablo Picasso
Sometimes I do need to get out my head. Granted, I do think that you need to THINK about art, and about what you do, but we train our brains to think in only one way, I think we miss out on a lot of the potential our mids can provide. Art, creativity, meditation, prayer, exercise, nature, human experience, struggling through difficulties, practicing virtues, you know… all those other ways of learning, open whole universes to us. And there is learning in simply being witness to something beyond us. This quote reminds me that instead of always trying to figure stuff out, I can simply stand witness to the beauty of a bird’s song, and acknowledge its sweetness. And I can do the same with art.
