If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?

I want to be Vincent Van Gogh, the artist.

I want to carry some part of myself to Van’s and assist him with the needed space the world failed to offer him,

And

Then, from him, learn the ability to understand how he was able to gather from nature the emotional depth.

Maybe, as Vincent, when I hold that brush against the canvas, the artist in me who often struggles, will be deeply honoured, that’s the sheer magic of being a human like Vincent.

One never knows, in the ordeal we both heal!

Warmly,

Mehnaz Amjad
