Our culture is full of all kinds of things that appeal to our senses. Sometimes, we see a beautiful dance performance, a great painting, or a movie that moves us to tears because of its positive message.
Yet there’s a caveat: Not everything we experience leaves us with a sense of catharsis. Sometimes, we experience something that leaves our soul feeling impure, and we ask ourselves: “Why did I even engage with this?” This question is important because it acknowledges our responsibility and discernment for what we “consume.”
