Shadow Faces Sun

More From Helen Keller

What the art historians had forgotten is that in chinese, japanese, persian, and indian art, they never painted shadows. why did they paint shadows in european art? shadows are because of optics. optics need shadows and strong light. strong light makes the deepest shadows. it took me a few years to realize fully that the art historians didn't grasp that. there are a lot of interesting new things, ideas, pictures.
Art Strong Light
When all you can feel are the shadows, turn your face towards the sun. there is always a bright side - even if only that it is not worse...and it can always be worse
Gratitude Shadow Faces
I like to help others and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days. these shadows look so thick to him and weigh him down so that when he finds they are shadows and that he can see through them, walk through them and be again in the sun, he is enormously delighted. and i am afraid i am just as delighted as he is.
Helping Others Shadow Looks
Thin clouds form, and the shadows lengthen out. they have no breadth, as summer shadows have; there are no leaves on the trees or fat clouds in the sky to make them thick. they are gaunt, mean shadows that bite the ground like teeth. as the sun nears the horizon, its benevolent yellow begins to deepen, to become infected, until it glares an angry inflamed orange. it throws a variegated glow over the horizon.
Summer Mean Sky
The sun is a huntress young, the sun is a red, red joy, the sun is an indian girl, of the tribe of the illinois. the sun is a smouldering fire, that creeps through the high gray plain, and leaves not a bush of cloud to blossom with flowers of rain. the sun is a wounded deer, that treads pale grass in the skies, shaking his golden horns, flashing his baleful eyes. the sun is an eagle old, there in the windless west. atop of the spirit-cliffs he builds him a crimson nest.
Girl Rain Flower
Then i noticed that my shadow was crying too, shedding clear, sharp shadow tears. have you ever seen the shadows of tears, mr. wind-up bird? they’re nothing like ordinary shadows. nothing at all. they come here from some other, distant world, especially for our hearts. or maybe not. it struck me then that the tears my shadow was shedding might be the real thing, and the tears that i was shedding were just shadows. you don’t get it, i’m sure, mr. wind-up bird. when a naked seventeen-year-old girl is shedding tears in the moonlight, anything can happen. it’s true.

Writing talent is similar to the art of chatting up a girl. you can improve to a certain degree through practice, but basically you are either born with it or you aren't.
