Tid Bit from My Diary

Art is a profound form of expression, a medium through which artists convey emotions, stories, and perspectives. It’s not merely an aesthetic addition to our living spaces; it’s meant to resonate with our innermost feelings and spark reflection. When we buy a piece of art from an artist, we're not just purchasing a decorative item; we’re investing in a journey filled with experimentation, failures, and triumphs. By looking deeper into the art, we can appreciate that path. Art’s primary purpose is to connect with us on a deeper level. It’s not confined to the limitations of matching our home decor or blending seamlessly with our furniture. Instead, it should provoke thought, evoke emotions, and speak to our soul. Whether it’s a vibrant painting, a poignant sculpture, or an intricate piece of digital art, its value lies in its ability to communicate beyond words. Every brushstroke, every chisel mark, and every pixel represents hours of dedication, experimentation, and, often, failure...

I got introduced to the lovely sounding word “ Meraki ”  & its meaning had a great impact.  Yes, I too thought it was a Japanese word but it turned out to be Greek. For some reasons, it didn’t sound Greek to me and pun is intended! It means doing something with soul, passion and creativity. Although “Meraki” is thought to be one of the untranslatable words, we can still extract its meaning. “Work with your heart and soul” is a phrase, we grew up with while not many realized the depth of it but “Meraki” takes it deeper.  Whatever we do, do it with great love and so much passion that a part of our soul remains there . This way we are eternally connected to all that we do or create and isn’t it wonderful! Now on let’s do everything with Meraki and I have trust that the results will be nothing less than any Miracle!
