Show don't Tell

So you think you can dance? can paint? can write? all of which takes dexterity and technique to 'show' the inner life , to show the 'light', the poetry, the song of life. How, you ask. Ignore the What of your performance. Just Do. Word power can be transitory.
Looking at the core of reality is a reach for the inner spirit
of the human need to love...how not what... otherwise we ape the past
without adding new meaning and your 'art' is lifeless.
Sentimentality gets you nowhere.
Show Purpose (action) moving toward its desire.
