Role of Art in our life:-

Alternative 1:

Could you imagine a life without a water....

A life with out fine arts, music and philosophy might felt like that, a life without water. Without it, our
minds could get dry, chappy, sensitive, and imbalanced. With it, our minds will run smoothly it will
give us a piece of peace and serenity. Things will flow.

Sometimes, a piece of art might motivates us and gives us an creative an edge, it might brought
memories from past, it might heal our past wounds. Sometimes it might give us a sense of
togetherness by creating a moment.

Also, Art might create platform for a social movement by millions. Sometimes piece of art might
create a love, peace that everyone admires and shares for many years and might become a
momenta for many artist, and symbols for certain decades.

The Art, Music and Philosophy (that was started thousands of years ago* in the past-please read
about great philosophers Socrates, Plato etc.) are all equally important as any basic human needs,
because we, our humans need to express ourselves through our emotions and self-reflections.
Indeed, all, they are a way of communications and between cultures and civilizations, therefore we
can learn, experience, and grow.

Pick up a book today , paint today (start with your walls if you like), or listen different piece of music
today.

Don't live without water.

Alternative 2:-

Art is a branch of philosophy: aesthetics -the study of what is beauty or beautiful. To answer that
question one must ask other fundamental questions, what is reality, how do I know it, what should I
then do? Until these questions are answered you normally get the afternoon TV talk show answer
"Art is what you make it." "Art is feeling..." all superficial answers given by second rate artists (or art
critics who posses no talent at all) with no formal philosophical training who think smearing feces on
a canvas is courageous and bold.

Art addresses the broad aspects of reality, knowledge and ethics so they can be understood directly
by the senses through contemplation. Is this world ruled by natural law? or chance? Do we know
things by reason and study or by divine revelation or vox populi? What is man (or woman)? a
plaything of the gods, a brute, a milquetoast a Jean Valjean, or James Bond or an Iago? a Scarlet
O'hara or Blanch Dubois or Buffy the Vampire slayer? based on the artist's view of nature, humans
etc. a setting, characters and plot are developed or a painting emerges. Michelangelo's David or
Picasso's women? One saw human potential and greatness, one hated women and distorted reality
to prove it.

I think Aristotle said it best that Art can tell us what is possible to man, history tells us what man did.

The Problem Of Stray Dogs

Nowadays the problem of stray dogs is burning issue. One can see it everywhere-at population
aggregates, at countryside, forest area. Globally there are an estimated 500 million dogs, of which
approximately 80% are stray or unwanted. Some of them were left by their owners, others grew up in
the streets. The growing armies of stray dogs in cities provoke quite natural fear of inhabitants, who
are ready to approve any steps taken by authorities through restriction of dogs’ number.
Governmental stray control programs may be brutal and based on inhumane methods of killing.
Many people in our society consider stray dogs as a nuisance. They say things like: “They are dirtying
our streets”; “They scare off our children”; “They bite people and spread rabies”; “Why aren’t they
removed from here?”
The animal lovers say: “Dogs have a right to live too”; “We don’t own this earth, dogs have equal
rights to live on this land”; “How can you throw out a mother and her small furry pups? Don't you
have a heart?”
Both parties are right in a way. We cannot kill/remove stray dogs from a place because they are living
beings like us capable of all emotions and suffering and hence have a right too like us to live in that
space. So, to solve the problem of rabies and over-population of street dogs, we need to find solutions
that are ethical and lawful.
The solution of the sterilization and vaccination program will satisfy both the dog ‘haters’ and
‘lovers’. Sterilization basically involves spaying of females and castration of male dogs so that they do
not reproduce. Vaccination involves giving the dogs an anti-rabies shot. After sterilization the dogs
do not reproduce and hence their population becomes stable. As they are vaccinated against Rabies
and other diseases they do not pose any health hazard.

Killing or removal of dogs from an area is not a solution as is normally thought. Since dogs are
territorial animals they will not allow any other dog to enter the colony. If the dogs are removed from
an area other dogs from surrounding colonies will take their place. Thus we will be back to initial
situation after say few months. Further these new dogs may be unsterilized and unvaccinated which
will only worsen the situation.
Though it may seem paradoxical, but having dogs in a society makes it safer! Even when guards are
employed, they normally sit together at the gate and pass the night especially during the winters.
Also when they patrol the colony at night they cannot detect unscrupulous persons hiding behind,
say trees or under cars or see them in unilluminated and dark areas. But such persons are easily
detected by the street dogs.
In case that the problem of stray dogs became so serious people are guilty. They throw their own
pets, and then resent after other thrown dog bites their children. In fact, sometimes these dogs are
very dangerous-each pack had its own area or territory. They used to protect their territory with
utmost ferocity, unity and sincerity. The primary aim of the pack was to kill or chase away the
intruder or enemy. And what did people expect?? Of course animals became wild. If that is the case,
why do not these people rebel against bums? It is their own fault that they found themselves at the
bottom of life. They are also dangerous circulators of infection, they can also injure people.

Like humans, animals also have a right to live. Because, they are the same as us, just with a lower
brain capacity than humans; preventing them from rational thinking and ruling this earth!!! But they
have a complete sensory nervous system allowing them to be aware and communicative. They feel
pain, pleasure, fear, frustration, loneliness, and motherly love. Should the more intelligent humans
have rights and the less intelligent humans be denied rights? If that is not so, then why are animals
denied their rights?
