I wonder, how we express our gratitude to someone. If it is towards God, we pray and meditate. if it is towards human beings, we do express ourselves by speaking. if towards animals, again by staying close to them & taking care of them & by not harming them Na more importantly, by not disturbing their habitation. If we are to show our gratitude towards ourselves, we do practise self-love and self-motivation and indulge ourselves in books or some positive thinking. We look for resources and various methods and means to express ourselves, wherein, we feel a sense of completion & our hearts are filled with the joy of giving & sharing.
But how do show our gratitude towards the art, we love? How do we express how we feel towards something, that takes our attention? Some piece of art, that is so captivating that lingers in your mind for a very long time and takes most of your attention. Art is art, a creation, but how do we express, that we are connected to it, and it is growing in my personality. How do we express that sense of belongingness to that piece of art, irrespective of its type, shape, size, time of creation or so?
WE GO AND HUNT FOR THE ROOT OF THAT ART. WE IMBIBE THAT IN OUR PERSONALITY AND THE MORE WE LEARN, THE MORE WE KNOW, THERE IS STILL MUCH MORE. WE PRESERVE THE ART LIKE SOMEONE IN PAST SHOWED THE GRATITUDE & PRESERVED IT FOR GENERATIONS TO COME.
Gond Art is one such art, that I have deep gratitude for. it grew on me and shaped my way of perception in a miraculous way. Deep down, it has made me explore more and bring it to the surface for people to know the roots of our inspiration.

I often quote my real feelings in my native language, as it has real feelings of my gratitude towards my Guru, My learning and above all the source of inspiration itself – Mother Nature and its hidden treasure.
I feel puny, when I look at nature, its inspirational force and how it captivates my attention. My sense of self is completely absolved when I look, at how nature defines me and hold my hand to guide me. we do not have to look into books if we want to get inspired. Just sit with nature and it will shape your thinking and before you know it, your craft will be matured in a new dimension.
When I consider nature, its inspiring power, and how it captures my attention, I feel puny. When I consider how nature defines me and holds my hand while I wander, my sense of self is entirely revoked. If we want to be inspired, we don’t necessarily need to look at literature. Simply spending time in nature will influence your ideas, and before you know it, your craft will already have developed in a new dimension.
When I consider nature, its inspiring power, and how it captures my attention, I feel nature is calling me to go deep and explore the secrets that it has in its womb. Nature is a silent force, but it pushes you to know your own limits and then challenge them further. When I consider how nature defines me and holds my hand while I wander, my sense of self is entirely revoked and shattered at the same time. If we want to be inspired and stay motivated, we don’t necessarily need to look in literature, books or sometimes into ourselves. Simply going and surrendering yourself to nature will influence your ideas, and before you know it, you will be seeing things in a different yet good frame to enhance your craft.
When I think about how nature inspires me and how it holds my interest, I get the impression that it is beckoning me to look more deeply and discover the wonders that lie inside its folds. Although nature is a silent force, it forces you to recognise your own limitations and then push them even beyond. My sense of self is completely revoked and simultaneously shattered when I realise how nature defines me and guides me while I explore. We don’t always need to turn to literature, books, or even ourselves if we desire inspiration and motivation. Simply going outside and letting nature impact you will change your perspective, and before you realise it, you will be viewing things in a new way.
Are you also inspired by nature and get overwhelmed with the awe of its impact on our minds and thoughts .
Do share your views with me .
Until we meet next
keep growing
keep standing tall
Stay grounded
And
let the dead leaves drop
