I agree. I have spend way too much time trying to be socialy accepted. Many times others told me that I should do this or that. Or that I can't do something. Now I say- fuck that. If I want something I will try to achieve it. I may or I may not succeed. that is irrelevant. as long as try possibility of achieving my dreams is not zero. And that is good enough to take the risk. I do not have the goal be a milioniere. Instead I want to enjoy my life till my last breath. And to be remembered after my death. I try to do or say things that seem entertaining to me. If others find them entertaining as well thats a bonus. When I started creating my art others said that I am wasting my time and that I will not succeed. Recently I signed a contract with an art gallery and they are now showing my works. So I am already closer to my dream than others could have expected. Now those same voices are saying words like "great job" or "keep it up".
