It’s not good when every time
someone asks you what
you’re doing with your degree,
it’s never what your degree is for.
“So, you wanna be a massage therapist?”
“So you wanna be a psychologist?”
“So you wanna be an artist?”
No, not really to all.
Still alright at massage.
Ok psychologist if
I had the patience.
I am an ok painter,
be better if I had more
time to spare…
The 10,000 hours rule,
my art teacher told me,
to be the best at
what you want to be.
But I am too busy trying to write.
I have been at it for over ten years
and more hours than I can count.
It’s easier now; less classes to write and read for.
So, I can finally write what I wish during the week
and not just the weekend.
