Man cannot comprehend the infinite;
only knowing that the best exists,
the second best is seen and praised,
and the next, despised and feared.

The sage does not expect that others
use his criteria as their own.
― Tao Te Ching

#Art may well be an attempt to embrace the infinite.

“It seems as if it were only through an experience of symbolic reality that man, vainly seeking his own 'existence' and making a philosophy out of it, can find his way back to a world in which he is no longer a stranger.”
― Carl Jung: psychiatrist, psychoanalyst

Symbolic reality

“Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes...to perceive beyond the tangible, to extract the infinite out of the finite. It is the emancipation of the mind. It is an exploration into unknown areas.”
― Arshile Gorky: artist

Indeed so.

"The primitive mentality does not invent myths, it experiences them. Myths are original revelations of the preconscious psyche, involuntary statements about unconscious psychic happenings and anything but allegories of physical processes."
― Carl Jung: psychiatrist, psychoanalyst

Jung believed mystic experiences have a similar character: they represent an action in which the spectator becomes involved though his nature is not necessarily changed; while, the most beautiful and impressive dreams often have no lasting or transformative effect on the dreamer.

"Some people have the incredible inside their minds, some have graveyards. This Creation hides so many wonderful secrets deep within us and one day, if you are truly lucky, you may find some of them," said the old man. "Keep looking, thinking, and be amazed at what can be found."

Food and fuel costs are through the roof. The price of a house has become cost prohibitive for many home-buyers. Rents are high enough to make a person seek out a bridge to call shelter.
Any good news out there?
Looking at fine art and reading great poetry on Twitter: still free.

Artist, Mark Rothko: “While the authority of the doctor or plumber is never questioned, everyone deems himself a good judge and an adequate arbiter of what a work of art should be and how it should be done. It is therefore a risky and unfeeling act to send it out into the world.”

“Art is unquestionably one of the purest and highest elements in human #happiness. It trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind. As the sun colors flowers, so does #art color life.”
— Sir John Lubbock: philanthropist, scientist, polymath, banker and politician

Stick those bombs where the sun won't shine.
Throw down those weapons and all will be fine.
There no logical reason for ongoing strife,
or the rashness involved in taking a life.
There are no do-overs on this merry-go-round.
Make the best of things before that hole in the ground.
