Survival vs. Living

Location

I say

 

Knowledge is key

 

Knowledge is golden

 

Knowledge is survival,

 

But to truly and fully capture the depths and the reaches of living,
 
We need art.
 
Art
 
These outlets that challenge us to give up and surrender our souls
 
This magic that strips the facades and masks that we dutifully paint on
 
That challenge us to brush away the demands of the world that don’t fit into our agenda
 
So sure
 
Knowledge is key
 
Knowledge is golden
 
Knowledge is survival
 
But what is survival without living?
