Being honest about who I am

After trying for a few years of my life to be what other people suggested i be i have finally accepted that I am an artist. I've also accepted that it is not a glamorous job. It doesn't pay a whole lot of money but I will tell you that it makes me very happy. It's freeing and I feel like I have found my place in the world. Everything that surrounds me is art so why shouldn't I embrace it. I pray that my journey is smooth and that I find what I am looking for in my work. Poetry, painting, braiding hair.... Here I am.
