Art is reflection

The significant moments in our lives are nearly impossible to grasp in the moment.  That is why art, storytelling, acting is so vital - art allows us to reflect on our own personal moments of triumph, of loss, of life, of joy and realize what we had.  What we need.  What's important. What we want.  A head on a shoulder.  The sound of a voice saying hello.  Saying goodbye.  A sigh.  A breeze.  A shift.  A decision made - by you or for you.  Silence.  The space between.  We find it in art.  It's what makes life worth living.

...just a thought I had before going to sleep the other night.
