You can only fully indulge in an artistic career
if you are freed from the burden of having
to earn a living for your own survival;
never mind that of additional mouths to feed
on top of every other bill that there is to pay...!
Those who were born with the proverbial
silver spoon in their mouth -
those were given the freedom to pursue
their wildest dreams ~ their greater
aspirations... in arts or whatever else
it may be ~ without constraints!
Those are the lucky ones...
Or are they?
It takes a fortune in order to make one as well
~ and it is a greater treasure still
when one finds oneself
outside of all
excessive material wealth!
