Harmonising Unseen Embers: A Multiverse of Overlooked Feelings ________ If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Of course it does. On the same note, if a masterpiece exists in a museum that no one visits, is it still a masterpiece? the answer again... of course it is. The absence of an observer to a fact does not nullify it. Although it feels that way at times, because it gives leeway for doubt. Feeling overlooked feels like the tree question. The answer is clear, but because it can't be proven without defeating the premise of the question, it’s easy to let doubt creep in and make one’s mind wander away. The value of art comes from the individual who made it; their effort, passion, vision, execution, emotion and self-fulfilment. The number of eyes on it does not determine its splendour in the same way the presense or absence of a person in a forest does not determine whether or not a falling tree makes a sound. They are like books on a shelf collecting dust, just because they haven't been read in a long time or at all does not make their stories any less captivating.
