Art is moving you. Let’s think about it. When you read, your mind is transported, maybe to Mount Doom, or the mansion of a sneaky vampire on a stormy night, aboard a submarine deep in the sea, or even into the mind of another man. Through a painting, you may step into a blooming garden, a fiery battle, or even enter into the sorrow of St. Mary. Music literally moves our bodies, not to mention our souls. A movie may engage you so much that you lose track of where you’re sitting!
