A Mere Sculptor

A sculptor works day and night to express the idea he has in mind and turn it into a classical sculpture with fine work engraved upon it. Basically, he follows a three step process through which he can portray and embody his thoughts completely into a figure he creates. He starts off his process with carving which is essentially a process to remove and chop off unwanted material from the core material such that further processes can be carried out on it. This is quite necessary and is done prior to any of the other procedures. Secondly, he begins modelling the core material as per the requirements. He adds on the little details he finds useful. He builds it from an amorphous lump to a significant piece of art. Lastly, he finishes it all with assembling all the required pieces into the places they belong and finally creating the masterpiece it was supposed to be!

Picture your own life. We are all sculptors of our own lives. Sculptors have distinct personalities and similarly, we all have different personalities according to which we mould our lives. We are creating the sculptor of life with every extra moment we live in this world. It is rightly said that life is what you make it. Even we, like the sculptors go through this three step process. We carve out the people from our lives who are toxic, who can spoil the shape of our lives. Then we proceed to modelling which lasts throughout the entirety of our lives. Every moment, every decision, everything that our lives consist of is a part of the modelling process. We add on the little details into our lives, we make it special in our ways. Eventually, we come through the process of assembling all of it, at the end.

“Life isn’t about finding yourself, it is about creating yourself.” We and solely we are responsible for how our lives turn out to be. No matter where you start from, how you make it end is what counts. The journey of life has its ups and downs and how you deal with it all and come through make it worthwhile. Life isn’t something that’s happening to you, it is something you are creating moment by moment, one piece at a time. Your life is something you create, what you conquer and what you achieve. It is up to you to make every moment count. Mould it into the masterpiece you aspire to create!
