I immediately thought of my daugther as I read this. When she was younger, she used to say she couldn't wait to grow up. I don't remember what happened for her to change her tune, but one day she said, "Growing up is stupid!" Thanks for nudging a fond memory!

When I might say something like that growing up my mom used to tell me “stop wishing your life away”. I still think of that often.

I was much more practical. I’d say, “When you grow up, you’ll get to drive a car, make your own money, travel where you want…” My logic shut her whining down!

Indeed. We are artists, not necessarily marketers. Do what nourishes your soul, let the chips fall where they may.

So true! As artists we can enjoy the process. Remember the why in what we do
