What is art?

I guess, nowadays, it is difficult to give a right, capacious, full-fledged definition of art. Many centuries and years ago people didn't have art itself. They even didn't know that some trivial components of their life would become a part of the world's art. And art has not always been what we think it is today. But some people try to identify art as the product or process of deliberately arranging items (often with symbolic significance) in a way that influences and affects senses, emotions, and intellect. 

Goethe defined art as a second nature, according to his ideal of a style that is to be found on the very basic fundaments of insight and on the innermost character of things.

According to Wikipedia, the word art can describe several things: a study of creative skill, a process of using the creative skill, a product of the creative skill, or the audience's experience with the creative skill.

Leo Tolstoy thought that art began when one person, with the object of joining another or others to himself in one and the same feeling, expressed that feeling by certain external indications.

But I think that art is the reason for many arguments and discussions. The simplest example is the definition of the art itself. For many centuries famous writers, scientists and other people have been trying to find out the right definition of this phenomenon. As for me, art is a very versatile conception. 

I consider art to be the part of the person's sole which is responsible for realization of the ideas which are paradoxical in the ordinary life. Also, art is a possibility to make your dreams come true. And I think it is wrong to think that not every person can become an artist. Deep in the sole of everyone of us dispositions for art live.. The thing is that not every person can understand your own art, and not everything you do can be called “art”.

For instance, I think that there are a lot of kinds of art. As for me, every occupation has its own sphere where masterpieces can be made. And they are also the components of the art in it's wide sense. 

It is art to speak for the audience and to persuade many-many people by telling them your own thoughts. It is an incredible art to behave children, to make them intelligent, tolerant and to share knowledge you have. Governing the city, the country, the kingdom is also not a very easy thing and you have to be an artist to cope with this task. 

It’s art to have a friend, to travel, to make jewelries, to cook, to sing and dance, to invent and innovate some technical devices, to paint, to make incredible sculptures, to sew, to write books, to make films and so on. 

Art is a dialogue with your heart and soul.
