Why is a raven like a writing desk?
...because Edgar Allen Poe wrote on both
it’s ridiculous how many times i’ve thought of doing something else besides art. sometimes i think of the reasons why i decided to be an artist; other times i think that i’m following this path because other people encourage me to and that i’m only chasing after their words. i’m having one of those moments where i’m conflicted over leaving this path for another even though i’ve come so close to what i’ve always dreamed of doing, but it’s difficult to leave something you’ve worked so hard for to turn to something else. part of me says to stay, but the other part is eager to find something new. during these times, i feel like a coward for wanting to stay on this path because i don’t have the courage to walk a different direction and start all over. there have been numerous times where i’ve given up starting a new passion because i’ve come so far. at these times, i wish time would stop so i could have more time to decide.
