celebrating the artist in you...

Don't believe everything people tell you who don't have a dream for themselves.
Sometimes you have to distance yourself from family to improve your own lot in life.
Celebrate yourself by surrounding yourself with people like you, who think like you, who want to go out and do something different for themselves.

Strive to be the best you can by doing something different.
You can start by reading something different!
