Brother’s Guitar

My brother’s guitar is his voice when words fail. He strums softly in his room, chords weaving through walls. When our dog died, he played a song so sad it made the air ache, but also healing, like rain after drought. He taught me to play “Twinkle Twinkle,” his hands guiding mine over the strings. Now, when I’m angry, he hands me the guitar: “Play it out.” The guitar isn’t just wood and strings—it’s how he says “I love you” without speaking, how he turns pain into melody. In its notes, I hear his joy, his sorrow, his hope. And in the way he shares it with me, I feel the quiet bond of siblings who understand each other best through music.

The Role of Art in Society

 The Role of Art in Society Art is a mirror of society, reflecting its dreams, struggles, and beauty. Paintings like Picasso’s Guernica protest war, while street art in cities like Berlin expresses political ideas. Music and dance celebrate culture—traditional Indian classical dance tells myths through movement. Art also heals: after a hurricane, my town held a community mural project, where everyone painted hope on a damaged wall. Art allows us to communicate what words can’t. In schools, art classes foster creativity and self-expression. I once made a sculpture about climate change, using recycled plastic to show the ocean’s pollution. Whether it’s a novel, a song, or a painting, art reminds us of our shared humanity and the power to imagine a better world.
