Sharing and Stuff (11/30/17)

So, I made this because I lost my purpose a bit. There's this saying, I'm not sure where or who it came from but it goes something like: "Once you put your art out there it is no longer yours." Or something like that. J Cole used it on the last track on "2014 Forest Hills Drive", the part where he's complaining about clearing samples lol right there he says it. One of my favorite artist by the way, but yeah that idea it kinda helped me out. I draw a lot, I'm not too confident about my ability and I try not to come off as some super well taught well versed artsy guy cause I'm far from that. I just do it, I always have, took time off from it but it's one of those things I can't escape. I write a lot, off and on. I write rhymes but I've always had anxiety about sharing it, I never fit that stereotype of the rapper guy. It's something I can't escape either at this point it's apart of me I enjoy writing it and thinking of ways to convey whatever it is I'm feeling or thinking. I feel like I'm losing my point here, the point is that sharing seems like the next logical step. For so long my art was only for my eyes. My ears. All the encouragement from the people who mattered wasn't enough for me to like, give it to the world. Present myself and what I do. I made this blog a little after my birthday I think and I just now got hit with the urge to say this. A lot happened in between then and now but I think sharing is good. Whatever it is you make or do. Who am I to say whatever I create won't inspire somebody who needs it. Somebody who has a skill or talent and they need that push. There's a lot of shit out here, always has been but you know the internet made it possible to see all the different levels of shit there is. I'm not the best wordsmith or artist or anything like that but I don't have to be, not to share. Not to throw whatever it is I make into the world and hope it does something good. I think anything is better than keeping it all to myself, just for me and nobody else. I feel like I just ranted. Is that what people do in blogs? I have no idea what I'm doing to be honest with you. I'm unsure how many people this will even reach but here I go.
