Our human lives contain both joy and bereavement,
Through it all we have Art, a crowning achievement,
Art is for communicating the Human Condition,
Thereby elevating it, a most valuable mission.

Ep. 393 - Artfully Happy

We begin as always 
with the Happy Creed.

We believe in Happy, 
in Balance and Growth, 
of being Mindful and Grateful,
Compassionate and Understanding.

Yowza

My Happy Friends!

Our human lives contain both joy and bereavement,
Through it all we have Art, a crowning achievement,
Art is for communicating the Human Condition,
Thereby elevating it, a most valuable mission.

Art is a way of interacting with reality, one that asks “How?”
Just like Science asks “What?” and Philosophy asks “Why?”
Art is a way of accessing Happy in the here and now,
Which you can then revisit or share with others by and by.

Art, along with Science and Philosophy, is one of the Three Great Considerations of humankind,
Because asking “How?” makes us think about quality and skill,
About form and content, and depth of heart and mind,
And helps us express our Happy creative Will.

Art is a way of interacting with the world and the people in it,
It can help us form connections and stimulate our souls,
It can happen over the course of a lifetime or in less than a minute, 
It can be about things experienced in passing or passionate life goals.

It is craft, it is feeling, it is life, it is history,
It helps us make some sense of the Great Mystery,
It delves deep and shows us that we are not alone,
Because being Artfully Happy goes straight to the bone.
