Point 2

March 1, 2009

There’s a point in your life when you’d have an image seared in your brain and think, “This is exactly how I want my life to be.” Of course getting there is an entirely different matter but at least there’s an end goal to everything you will be doing from that point onward.

 

You won’t have the wisdom only years of being alive can give you so you’ll be fixated on this image. It’s not a two-dimensional image. It’s the whole depth of a particular lifestyle, or a particular purpose. You won’t know if once you get it you’ll find that it’s not as awesome as it seemed before—you just know that you want it. 

 

When we’re kids we get asked a lot: what do you want to be when you grow up? Well I’m 21 and I’m all grown up. I want to be a lot of things, and I’m as indecisive about them as I was when I was seven. The options are different now, but I have this image in mind as to how I want my life to be. It’s not much—I’m not after fame or fortune. I’m after beauty and everything that I believe it stands for.
