Choosing a path

One day while daydreaming as usual in a college math class, I made a list.

This list was different from most lists because I never got past number one.

I had been struggling again with stressing questions like:

What should I major in?
What do I want to be?
What should I do with my life?

You know, the typical post-high school, midway through college, still can’t decide what you want to do syndrome.

So I decided to make a list of the things I love to do.

I thought a moment and wrote:

Create.

I never wrote anything else.

At the time I was afraid of the implications of such a statement.

However, after fighting myself for years I have finally decided to pursue artistic creation as a career.

Expanding my skills as an artist is how I have chosen to turn a pastime into a lifestyle.

My goal is to communicate love and truth, in their purest forms, to all who view my art.
