Second thoughts and their purpose
It was a fresh, sunny day as I was sitting near a body of water. There was a flower somewhere in front of me, but only after my first thought did I truly see the flower.

The Diverse Styles of Graffiti Art: From Tags to Murals. AI-Generated.
Street art may seem like a typical spray-painted wall. Nevertheless, it is actually a colourful expression of rebellion created by urban youth and infused with culture, self-identity, and social message. Originally founded in the underground punk rock scene of New York City in the 1970's, this urban medium has grown to become a worldwide art movement used to decorate the barren landscape of concrete. Graffiti has also developed through a variety of artistic styles. Different styles of graffiti reflect the artist's own individual expression, level of skill, and purpose of the message, having influenced fashion, advertising, and fine art. This article will examine the global evolution of graffiti and highlight the variety of graffiti artistic styles that continue to change the face of the urban environment, testing all views of art in general.

The Moon of Hope
Years of conflict had cast long shadows over Commander Wail’s homeland. Even as a child, he had been surrounded by conversations of war. His parents, both doctors, often stayed awake at night, anxious over the safety of their country, the devastating consequences of battles, and the lives of countless children. Young Wail would return from school, his mind heavy with thoughts, hearing his classmates discuss the horrors of war. He often wondered why everyone seemed consumed by fear and destruction.

An Unusual Bond
It is often said that only brave people make life-changing decisions, and Tariq was one of them. Elders say that marriages are made in the heavens; I had heard this many times, but when curiosity turned into reality, my eyes were truly opened. We are all subject to divine will—every particle in the universe moves by God’s command.

The Dancer
Canvas blocks softened by delicate satin make rhythmic drumming notes in the hallow gallery through the open door to the left. A girl I don’t remember, maybe she’s new, is standing in shame and exhaustion as the master scolds her on technique and timing. We have a job to impress, to bring in money, for the opera and for our families, if you still have anyone left to feed. If you dance well, one of the wealthy men in the audience might like you. If you perform well after the show, they might come back to see you.

The Gallery of Almosts
That thought hits me every time I step into my studio. It smells of paint thinner, old paper, and dreams I once had but never fully realized. Around me, unfinished canvases lean against the walls like ghosts of ambition. Some are half-sketched, others nearly complete—but none are whole.

A Good Deed
I have always felt that a single good deed in life can pave the way for blessings not just for oneself, but for one’s children as well. My story comes from my days in the police force, a time when officers had very limited resources. We often traveled on our own horses, and whenever we went home on leave, government-issued rifles were collected from us. For self-defense, we carried only daggers or similar small weapons.

This is the story of a beautiful valley settled at the foot of a hill, where nature itself seemed alive. Colorful flowers spoke lovingly to children, the breeze carried gentle laughter, and every corner reflected cleanliness and harmony. The children of this valley were eager learners who valued knowledge, discipline, and neatness. They kept themselves tidy and took pride in their appearance and surroundings.

Grow up all ready! How long does that take? I am still astounded at the immaturity of most men versus most women. How do we have the up, on behaving with decorum and some men have so little?

When To Drop A Writer
Sometimes, there will arise a problem between writer and artist. There are plenty of reasons for this to happen, and when it happens, the adult thing to do is to just message the other person that you’ll be breaking off business dealings with the person and then going on to the next project. You can negotiate, especially if you have a split-profits deal, so avoid blocking them for as long as possible (although in some cases a clean break is best). Each situation is unique, so get as much advice as possible before making a rash decision. Also, remember that in business, paranoia is a good thing: Keep records of every interaction. How you’ll proceed is up to you when you decide to break up, but something needs to be done.
