Just because something is called true, good, or beautiful, doesn't mean it is so. These words from Kant's "What is Enlightenment?" seem crucial for current times.

It’s never too late to begin practicing an art.

Making art lowers stress, enhances immune function, and increases cardiovascular reactivity.*

Businesses engaging in arts practices can create better work culture.

It's intriguing how Maslow's hierarchy of needs is widely accepted without much scrutiny.

Given how it shapes our understanding of humanity, there's a compelling case for challenging Maslow's view, even if we end up still accepting it as is.
