做我所爱

11-19麦克风 1. As a child growing up, I was definitely very creative. I just loved making things and drawing and painting and playing music, just something that I enjoyed so purely and I didn’t worry about anything else. 2. At some point, things started to change and I don’t even remember what the specific point is. But there is definitely a flip of the switch on people’s mindset of the arts. 3. They start telling you that the arts are not real jobs, being an artist is not viable, being a musician is not realistic and these should all stay as hobbies. 4. I let all those toxic thoughts from myself and from other people and from society pollute my mind and I forgot that I started out just as a kid who loved to draw and loved to be creative and loved to play music. 5. Now this is not a sad story because eventually I did realize what I loved to do and what made me happy, which was creating. 孩童时期，我真的非常富有创造力。我喜欢创作东西，画画，玩音乐，就是一些我单纯喜爱的东西，我当时没有任何烦忧。 在某一时刻，事情开始发生改变，我甚至不记得具体是什么时候。但是人们对于艺术的观念确实发生了转变。 他们开始跟你说艺术不是真正的工作，当一位艺术家是行不通的，当一位音乐家很不现实，这些只应该作为业余爱好而已。 这些来自我自身，来自其他人，来自社会的有毒的想法，我放任它们荼毒我的思想，我一度忘记了我从孩提时期就开始热爱画画，热爱创新，喜欢玩音乐。 这并不是一个悲伤的故事，因为最终我意识到了我喜欢做的，能让我开心的东西，那就是创作。
