“I Chose To Be An Artist…”

I chose to be an Artist because I crave passion.

The relentless, unwavering desire to create, kind of passion.

The I can't breathe until this emotion leaves me, until I create something
that fills my breath with life once again, kind of passion.

The I'm not even doing this for me anymore, kind of passion.

The passion capable of echoing through generations,
of changing set in stone perspectives,
of shifting eternity’s timelines.

I chose to be an artist because the passion I feel is the passion you feel --
connecting and intertwining the smallest intricacies of our lives.

The passion that makes us feel complete.

May we all one day choose to become Artists.
