100 Reasons

After years of ignoring myself, I developed an urge to write 100 reasons of why I need to be an artist again. Here's an insight to my thought process and experiences.

Reason #11

Only the Owner Knows.

"It is the owner of the house who knows where the roof leaks."

Reason #18

The first time I felt loss.

The first death in my family that I experienced.

Reason #20

I lost my Father.

Reason #13

My first drawing.

Storytime

Reason #19

Jack of all Trades.

Where do I start?

Reason #7

I refuse to become Lot’s wife.

I refuse to look back.

Who was Lot’s wife?

Reason #12

I have time.

If I get to live to my 80s or 90s, that means I’m not even halfway through the time I have on Earth.

Reason #10

Intense Complexity.

A poem.

Reason #9

I’m not special.

There is no triumphal arch or any goal to reach, nor are we so important or so transcendent.

Reason #8

I never fit in.

Storytime.

Reason #17

The Grass is Never Greener.

Did you know it dates back to the Greek poet Ovid?

Reason #16

I lost myself.

“What if it's only made to be experienced?”
