I have a place to live in and some amazing friends
that keep me grounded in the now.
I feel alone sometimes but that is of my own doing.
I know that I will never own my own home
but as long as I have a roof over my head I will be ok.
I know life some times will get me down
but my life quote is

but they have made me the person I am today.
Sometimes I may not believe in myself or my art
but I don't let that stop me.
I wish I had more time to spend doing my art,
but will take what little time I get.
I have always and will always be extremely
I have always and will always be extremely
thankful when someone likes my work.
I love spending time by myself,

but am learning that this way life will just pass me by.
I know that this may be depressing,

but it is not; it is just my reality.
I do believe that life may be this way now,
