RE: I Was The Patron Saint of Postcards in California: Adventure Lies on the Other Side of Fear

in #passion7 years ago

some people thought of me as crazy and ambitious too. i was heading on a career in the government and then suddenly shifted to art. life of an artist is hard as a lot of people would never understand us but at least we are happy. i am glad to what you have become. keep inspiring others. i will also do my part.

Sort:  

I think had I followed my own path sooner, I would have been an artist. Right now, I love to create art but never had formal lessons or took the time to learn because my parents didn't support it. Now I live my life how I want and not how my parents want. I wanted to study art in college though, but took the "Safe" route instead.

I've decided it's better to just follow your dreams because now I know that you can truly make a living by doing what you love. Just never give up! There is plenty of room for artists to succeed in this world :) I'm glad I changed my mindset and know this now @gailbelga
