I hope we will fail so greatly, so loudly, that the outside eye may think we have won. And I suppose we will have won, though in a less obvious way. We will gain the experience of doing the thing; the confidence to vocalize our pitfalls despite the norm of burying them; we will rise above the critics who mask their insecurity behind a veil of self-righteousness.

What i’ve found is that creativity or even art does not need to be some grand opus that is easily distinguishable as being so. It’s the little things. Arranging your bookshelf, picking a font, writing an instagram caption, and queuing up a song for your morning drive: it all comes from a place of inspiration.

I have an entire life ahead of me, why on earth should I waste it away at the beginning?

I will never be satisfied if it isn’t a decision I’m making for myself. So when it was time to decide where to go to college and what to do with my life, I took the road less traveled by so to speak.
