The Thread and the Kite by Kurt Rojas
3rd Place Winner 48th Shell National Students Art Competition @Ayala Museum | October 20, 2015
There are thousands of things that are considered the best part of our life; it can come from the mundane and complex part of our journey. The best part of our life can also come from various forms that are meant to be appreciated. When we were a child, our observations of reality began at home, we were once a symbol of innocence and hope, we never knew that the simple idea of flying a kite symbolizes fate, freedom, exploring new horizons and achieving dreams anchored in reality.
We play, and we take part of the joyful moment of life, setting aside the reality of living in the big picture of society. Sometimes, when we went home devastated, we ask ourselves why we should fly a kite when afterwards it will only be tangled in wires or destroyed by the wind. These experiences we had are considered a thread that links us to one another. In the spiritual context, thread symbolizes the link between thoughts and emotion merging with our soul. Thus, at some certain point of our lives when we decide to become the weaver of our destiny, the twisted threads caused by unpredictable consequences merge into an alluring and substantial tapestry of life.
Memorable experiences are the best part of our life; these are the things that we all can relate, to develop our social and personal relationship. We may unconsciously neglect this, but it is important for us to become our own friend as well. This measures our ability to know more about ourselves and how we can handle ourselves in any situation. If you want to fly like a kite, dance with the wind and remain connected to your true source of life. Don't get tired, don't let go. Highlighting the experience of flying a kite is the best part of our youthful journey; it teaches us how to become a better person in facing the reality of life.
