These days we call everyone an “artist” even actors and directors. But an artist, according to me, is someone who creates something new from zero. A painting, a story, a world… something that didn’t exist before. Actors and directors don’t really create from scratch. They interpret. An actor brings a written character to life. A director shapes how the story is shown. Huge skill, yes, but the original art comes from the creator. Maybe performers are “performing artists” or “art interpreters,” and that’s a whole separate debate. But creators and performers aren’t the same. Honestly, my inner voice keeps telling me this: not every actor is an artist, and I cringe a bit when they call themselves one. What do you think?
People of uncertainty, taught to follow a fool clutching a book, or a book dragged behind a nation. You bow to pages you never read, defend borders you never drew. Asked only to learn, you sit back, legs crossed, guarding what you call yours. forgetting it was never yours to begin with. Not the truth. Not the word. Not even the certainty you pretend to own.
It forgets, like smoke leaving a room not forgiveness, just time doing its work. what stays, stays heavy. what leaves, never looks back. maybe one last time, I should..
