I believe you should enjoy the art of something you do, everything else comes later. There seems to be an urge to have lots of followers, & views & flaunt how amazing you are.
I think it’s beautiful to make art because it’s a need to release your ideas on paper, canvas, or even on your bedroom wall for example. may your landlord never have a surprise visit
It’s super special to have your community, it’s your own success. Your achievements are different to everyone else's. There’s room for everyone. ❤️
On an un-related note I spent last summer travelling around the United States, it was a rollercoaster but we spent days driving, ate pizza from somewhere in the middle of nowhere, earthquake warnings, washed my hair in the sink, saw very big pickles, realised you can buy pretty much anything, in a cowboy store I almost bought a duck. Saw cowboy boots … & men riding a horse wearing a cowboy hat ( note, they do not like to be called cowboys🤠
Drank a beer on a flood warning day in a restaurant = made fun of the news lady on the TV,
Walked Runyon Canyon Park hoping Robert Pattinson would appear,
Walked from Hollywood walk of fame to the Hollywood Sign taking a diversion through the back up. Heard noises in the bushes (was it a snake?) we walked very fast. Was it extremely hot? Yes.
We saw sunsets, & bear signs in the mountains, saw beautiful forests & national parks
Vegas is crazy and it doesn’t feel like reality
Taking the bus through California, Malibu is beautiful
Santa Monica is busy
I spent 90% of the time chatting to the driver in monument valley, a tree was full of coins. I asked is their something particular special about this spot & he said people are suckers & will believe in anything
We laughed & looked at the views.
Death Valley feels oppressive. You feel the sun on your skin, it’s dry; your sweat evaporates quickly.
Death Valley is huge, life comes out at night, stars shining.
We spent a-few hours in Phoenix, San Francisco, spent time in UTAH & Arizona.
After 2 weeks, I want to re-visit these places, meet people and spend much more time going through the valleys and going up and down the hills in San Fransisco. Lambert Street was pretty steep. I have realised I do love San Francisco after everything. A life by Malibu beach will be pretty nice too.
