A wise man said, life is an imitation of art. Some others prefers to see that life itself is an art. I agree. I see life as painting. Body is a canvas. The canvas that we paint the art of our lives. It doesnt matter how we paint it, we know no one leaves the canvas blank. Who we are is hardly defined by the colors we used. The art itself does not depend solely on colors. But the brush does play the role. Soul is the brush, the mechanism that controls the colors as we go through the journey creating our art.
Art is however subjective in definition. Every single things, ideas and emotions have their own art and we are not subjected to look at it in one direction. To feel the presence of ourselves is to get in touch with our being every second and to find the art hidden. The art of freedom to Coelho (the writer) is not the absence of commitments but lies in the choices of task that he made. Freedom to me is when we finally understand and ready to set free ourselves from defining things as what they are and who we are. We are everything that the universe has to offer.
It is hard to search the right answer of who we are. No one knows not even ourselves. But if we know what art we're carrying, the knowledge of the universe will certainly helps us to get to know our soul and the souls of the others. It'll guide us in making decisions, shaping our perceptions, and balancing between rational and emotion.

shit, you are deep. way beyond deep, i think. so, the question is who/what uses the brush to create the painting on the canvas? is the canvas in the first place in existence? i think coelho has this answered already, and i have only been half way through the alchemist. i think, more people like you should join the pegawai tadbir and diplomatik group. cheers!
thanks for reading it. before answering ur q, i shall say.. Alchemist is a good choice.keep reading. Canvas as I believed, already exists before us. Thoughts and ideas as well as experience combined with the our physical being, create the painting. bear in mind, some people believed the choices is solely in our hands, the existentialist idea tht is. for some, the hands that paint is guided by a Supreme Being.
