Love and Mystery - Love Through Art
by Tetyana Conrad
Sunday, June 19, 2011

Rated "G" by the Author.

       


     America has been called the land of opportunity, and New York City has been at the center of that belief. Many people migrate to this city hoping that it will change their future. People come her to make their mark in business, economics, politics, art and music. Each settles in the area of the city which caters to his or her talents and profession. Some fail, while others succeed. There are those who distinguish themselves because they have the talent to begin with and there are others whose talent is forged on a road of trial and error...learning from his or her mistakes. Their success can be in several ways - a meteoric rise to the top, or it might be achieved as the result of many failures. Some can also be born into wealth and success, while others come upon it by a stroke of sheer luck. They just might be at the right place at the right time.
However, something unexplainable can happen to a very select few. It catapults them into a world of dreams. They can enjoy the fruits of that world, but it just happened...it wasn't their intention. They just hoped and prayed for success, like all the others. For some, it can be like a nightmare, but for others, it can lead to something extraordinary.

 

Nicole is painting a picture in her studio, but it doesn’t seem right. She is in a great depression and doesn’t know what she should do. She feels unlucky, because she has no money and no boyfriend. However, she does have a lot of friends who love her, enjoy being around her and give her good words and compliments. She thinks, ‘all the time my friends tell me that I’m nice looking, a very good person inside, that I’m smart and intelligent, friendly and always ready to help others - and yet I feel so alone. My dream is to meet someone with whom I will feel completely whole.’

She returns to her painting and has the vision that she had earlier, in which she hears music and sees the face of a young man. The music she hears makes her forget about her depression and negative thoughts. Her heart and soul begin to fill with happiness and harmony. From this music she begins to paint. However, she is painting unusually fast. She is not thinking and her hand is moving like it is separate from her body. It’s like she’s in another dimension. After a while, she stops and thinks ‘where am I and what’s going on?’

The next moment she realizes that she is in the same small studio in her apartment but, everything is different. It is brighter and there are many pictures. She can’t believe she did all this. It makes her feel very happy. In front of her is one of the pictures she painted. The more she looks at it, the more she loves it. But, there is something mysterious about this picture. When she looks at it, the energy that went into painting this picture returns to her. The energy moves around her and through her. It stops inside her, and she feels as if she gained some knowledge, some understanding of why she is here and why she is painting. She wished to share her happiness with someone who will be close to her. He will be very understanding and supportive. She feels that she is on the road to big changes in her life and this makes her feel very excited and happy. Nicole looks around and sees all kinds of pictures for this small studio and all kinds of thoughts come to her mind. In particular, she asks herself , ‘what’s next ?... What should I do now’?, and she has the dream again. There is a long gallery adorned with many pictures on the walls that are signed by her. She is surrounded by a lot of people, and they are all very excited and giving her compliments. This makes her very happy. The whole scene is unbelievable. It is a very happy moment. It is like a dream come true .

Mike, the young singer/songwriter, is sitting by his piano. He is just relaxing and thinking about nothing. All of a sudden he has a vision. He sees a beautiful girl, and pictures with bright colors behind her. Upon returning to reality, everything looks different. It is like he has returned from another world. All the colors seem brighter and he starts composing. While writing music, he has another vision. Mike sees many pictures of circles, ovals and rings which are behind the girl. These pictures are in different colors - white, red, green, yellow, purple, orange, gold and silver. The pictures give him creative energy. He forgot about everything else and just composed music.

This was like his big start. After this, whenever he had the vision of the girl and the pictures, he would compose music. It was as if he been given a new life. This gave him great happiness and the feeling that his life will be getting better and better. He felt as if something very important and serious will be coming into his life.
