Question

Hiding a crippling need for approval
We’ve inherited a difficult earth. It’s not an extremely pleasant place to live in, and despite the jokes about Mars, we’re limited to this world. It’s made us angrier. We’ve grown up a wary, uncertain generation, bombarded with unprecedented amounts of information, most of which, at least in recent times, has been a sombre reminder of how terrible the world can be. We’ve grown up preparing ourselves for an inevitable war. Every generation has its conflicts, and we’ve had the dubious privilege of knowing that ours are vaster, deadlier, and more destructive than ever before. We are acutely aware of what’s at stake, and crippled by this realisation as much as we are empowered by it
In this flux, I have a small request for you. I implore you to chase beauty. Not in people, not in the ways the media tells you beauty manifests. No. I beg you to chase what calls to your heart, what makes your blood sing, what forces you to close your eyes and sigh softly because of the sheer impact it has on you. Chase colours that elude you. Hum half-remembered pieces of music till someone joins you in your search of the other half. Trace ink splatters again and again till they brand themselves into the muscles of your fingers
You’ll be told that this a waste of time. That, in a world where people are dying, where you might be next, it’s not wise to spend time looking at things, even creating things, that can’t double up as weapons. But please. All I ask of you is to pause
To look at art, maybe, and sigh, not because of its historical value, but because it tugs at you. To read poetry and find it nestling in the crevices of your heart that need warmth. To smile, because you feel. Humanity has, since its inception, created art and revelled in it. It has, without fail, tried to seek out beauty, and has tried so hard to commemorate it. The world is very keen to make a hardened soldier out of you. Be soft. Be receptive to love, to excitement, to joy. We’ve inherited a difficult earth. But it’s still earth. It’s still soil, fecund and fragrant, waiting for roots to wrap itself around
Plant yourself , Breathe , Bloom.
