"The heart knows its own bitterness, and no stranger will share in its joy." Proverbs 14:10

No one understands the heart feelings inside me. I've been thinking about art. One of the qualities that make art great is ambiguity. Music is notes, and notes can make us feel joyful, wistful, sad, tense, or relaxed, depending on the arrangement, or the mood of the listener. And so with poetry, dance, painting.

Art is an expression of heart feelings. Communication is so much more than words. A few guitar chords, a T.S. Eliot poem, or Rembrandt painting can say as much as millions of books.

And yet, in our modern art-saturated culture it's still possible to feel completely alone. There are some thoughts and feelings inside us that no one else can really know. This must be because the Creator made each of us to be special and unique. God made us as individuals.

And He knows our deepest bitterness and joy.
