Can I glitter? To glitter is to reflect light. Light by nature is expanding. Hope, joy and love are expansions of the psyche. Perhaps the question is best answered by another question. How do you polish the mind so to better reflect the light of hope, joy and love?

maybe whith sensibility we can give light..
but this knowledge is fading away..

This light we can give is a knowing rather than a knowledge. It is a aspect of life itself, which we choose to embrace or choose to ignore. It is perhaps useful to ask what actions stimulate ones awareness of this knowing? This question can lead to knowledge of the knowing.

So it´s knowledge or knowing?
And where we can include sensibility?

Perhaps a good metaphor for Knowing is the natural breath. It rises and falls of its own accord. While knowledge is the study and control of breath. BUT ONE MUST NOT FORGET THAT KNOWLEDGE IS THE STUDENT OF KNOWING. And sensibility? Perhaps that is art. The momentary shaping of reality to ones intent in balance with the release of such restriction. Like music, you can ride the breath as long as it remains a cycle. To dominate it is to destroy it and yourself.

Very very few people do that!
And know that! It´s hard to reach that kind of level!
The more we will know, the more free we will be, but more alone..
That´s the price!

On a temporary leval it is as easy as romance, or any other strong instictive response.
But to prolong and maintain this experience of expanded awareness or wisdom, it is like a journey of a thousand miles, each individual step is easy,but one must keep moving forward by making many small steps of commitment. The difference between a fool and a sage; is that one stopped walking, the other did not.
As you said, the more free we are the more alone we will be. That is because the majority of people stop walking when they forget the desire that started them down this path.

Perhaps the individual experience will always be a solitary experience. Perhaps this is the power and purpose of art. To allow others a peek into our world. The artist does not need to justify it, only express it. Like nature, the artist creates a seed of expression and sends it into the world, to hopefully find fertile soil and grow into a larger potential.

The expression of self cannot be avoided. If one breathes one makes sound. If one walks one leaves a trail of prints. If one stacks a few rocks to mark a location of interest others with add to it, or take from it. Expression is easy. The difficult part is fullfilling personal expectations of how others will respond to your expressions of self.

they don´t care, and we they care, they don´t understand..
(beautiful words you have)

The more unique ones experience of life, the more difficult it is to find understanding. Without understanding their is no empathy. With out empathy their is no interest. If ones desire for this care and understanding is absolute, the most direct path I know; is to try to understand and care about others. To do for them what you want for yourself. By serving their needs your caring creates a common bond. Thus by becoming more like them (empathy) it is easier for them to understand you.

Sorry want I meant, was: "they don´t care, and who cares, don´t understand.."
your words have wisdom, but very dificult..
You can do lot of things for the others, but what I understand and I don´t agree, is, they keep on not understanding you, because not even all whom you help it has the same sensibility has you..
But sometimes, we have lucky ((:

It is true that others who do not have the same sensibility may never see and understand the world as you do. And yes this is sad and lonely. But would one who knows hightened sensibility, want to trade this awareness for the comfort of the 'herd mentality'? To be sensitive often means to be alone. Other people of this nature may not be common, but they exist. So the question is how does one find them, and is it worth the effort. Perhaps this is the real attraction of Deviant Art. That is to find the others that also experience live outside the typical perspective.

I think most of the people don´t understand our words lol (but I don´t care)
I don´t know what the people on DA wants (maybe I do), but isn´t different from outside.. They are human.. They have the same needs..
What are you looking for?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What am I looking for? I must answer this in two ways.
1) I am looking to enhance pleasure and minimize pain. My biological self feels all the desires typical to biological life.
2) I am looking to explore the subtle wonder of inspiration of both the body and the mind.
The human ability of self reflection expands the natural desires into greater depth of psychological self experience. With such expanded awareness, relationship to the universal reality is magnified both in exterior perception, and interior perception. In searching both the inner and outer universe, one is searching for identity (defined by relationship discovered thru experience).

But you must choose one. Time is too short to invest the two things.
Maybe the mind is the best choice.. But it depends what things you chose for your life.

Ah, but there is a third way to answer this question; what do you want.
3) And that is the answer of the heart. The heart listens to both the body and the mind, but is not ruled by them. The heart wants to be embraced, but even more it NEEDS to embrace. To fully embrace the heart is too know the ecstacy of suffering, bearable only because the pain of the beloved always seems greater than your own, and the hearts true purpose to love; is never denied.
