The Visible Essence

How abstract or crazy can one get?

Well, I was reading about this painter through a blog where the blogger was saying how abstract he is when he paints. He brings lot of shades to life by either giving details or knowingly ignoring to fill in.

I felt thats the greatest boon that the mind gives you...either that or the most stupidest credit that man has!

If you think about it, lot of people get away by saying or projecting things abstract or vague(for lack of a proper word). You can be termed smart for blowing up insignificant and unnoticed things. Or you can be called ignorant for calling it not worthy of a praise.

What is the visible essence that is truly abstract yet clear(not just to the clairvoyant minds)? Is it something that is truly visible or something that is truly obvious or both.

Now, I am not trying to play with words, I have never been good at it. But what I would like to realize is the essence in our everyday life. Not the spiritual one, but the most common one.
