Art Makes Us Feel Better

 

Gratitude Year 12- Day 173: Today, I am grateful art makes us feel better. 

It is true. We can make art or simply enjoy it... either way, at the end of the day we feel better. 

We are better for the experience of creating. It is part of being made in His image. 

"Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. ” -Genesis 1:26a

Even being surrounded by art gives us a sense of wonder and awe. Life is art and art is a part of life. Cultures around the world developed different kinds of art. Some things were practical like rugs, pottery, jewelry, and beaded clothing. Other creations were simply artist expressions. 

Music, paintings, weavings, pottery, and other handcrafted items show little glimpses into our souls. Artistic endeavors can have a big impact on how we feel. They help express who we are. 

Art can impact our mood. We tend to choose and create art that makes us feel better.

Today, I am grateful art makes us feel better.
