"You May Say I'm A Dreamer"

Dreams for my Future -

Over my life I've a lot of different dreams I tried to pursue like being a lawyer, a guitarist, fashion designer, multiple things. My mom always said its better to be the "Jack-of-all-Trades" than to be really good at one thing, she said I was "opening doors" for myself. Which I think is true, but being seventeen years old I realized that I need to find something to try to focus on and I need to find it soon. I think I've found it, or them. I either want to own my own auto and body shop, or become a photographer. It'd be nice to do both. I really just want to have a career that involves art. Anything really, I usually just go with the flow, but I've really been pushing the flow to go towards art because art has been a big part of my life since I was born. Everyone in my family is artistic, usually in a more musical fashion. That's never been my thing though, I couldn't really find an instrument that I could sit down and learn, but drawing and painting is not something you need to "learn." You can draw something that may look like trash to someone else, but if you like it, then its good. Drawing/painting can't be determined by someone else, only you. Same for photography, you can take a picture and it may come out terrible to others but if you like it, well it's the same as before, it's good.

  1. Maybe you can do both: the auto shop and the photography! Both sound like great plans...
