Q: Hey I need a little advice. My life has been feeling empty and directionless for a long time and I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. Then I discovered you and I just felt like wow that's exactly what I want to do. Be a musician, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist content creator etc etc. I'm not out of highschool yet and I'm very close to turning my life around but I don't know if it's stupid to pursue something only because of my adoration of you? I can't tell of it's following my dream or taking some obsession too far. Sorry for the long ueqstion
A: you could try it until you get tired of it. for me, music hit me hard at an extremely extremely young age, then if it ever went away momentarily it would always come back and hit me harder from a different angle. various things have hit me like this at different times, but music has been deeply connected to most of them. what you see me doing today is sort of a natural merging of many many different things i have been deeply obsessed with for my entire life. so if it is not that for you, the worst thing that could happen is you may simply get tired of it. no harm in checking. one time i thought i was going to suddenly learn to trade foreign currencies and make a living off of it. i never thought about doing it before, and never had any experience doing it. i tried it and lost interest after about 2 weeks. but that doesn't mean i shouldn't have tried it
