Art is the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, and there are
numerous types of art, including visual arts, literature, graphic arts, and many others. But it is the
performing arts, which include music, dance, and theater, that I like the most. Performing arts, in my
opinion, allows us to express our sentiments and emotions via the usage of our bodies and mind.
When you’re happy, you enjoy the music. But when your sad you understand it’s lyrics. Music (as
composition) why? On my own perspective, life is more meaningful with music, I myself tried to engage
in the world of music and then I realize that music brings so much color to our lives. Music is not just a
way to express those unspoken thoughts deep inside us but it is also a way of connecting to nature, so as
connecting to the whole world itself. For me music is a way to escape the painful reality in this cruel
world, it is just like being lost in a dessert without direction and then a music suddenly played, At least
music helps me find my way back to what path I really need to take. It gives me time to think, reflect and
be back to the things I need to accomplish in reality. The entire universe is a stage, and we are the actors
on it. Theater for me is one of the best expression of who we are and the culture we belong; it also helps
us understands more about life. Theater also aids in the development of confidence and self-esteem, as
well as the expression of self through the sharing of personal tales. Theater may also bring people
together, having an impact on our lives and on the lives of others, and allowing them to share their own
perspectives. Dance is the hidden language of our soul. In my own opinion, the purpose of dancing isn't to end
up at a particular spot on the floor. The purpose of dancing and of life is to enjoy every moment and every step,
regardless of where you are when the music ends. Dancing makes a person feel alive, it gives hope for a better
tomorrow, and a feeling of attachment and love.
Performing arts is not just about the music, drama, and dance that matters, it is all about how you
perform and enjoy every single note, line, and step.
