Different stroking.

Some writers are poets. Some write fiction. Short stories or novels. Some writers write for film, some movies, some comic books, some cartoons, some greeting cards. Some writers write for video games. Some writers write fiction while others write nonfiction. For every writer there is a different desire and a different path to see those desires realized. The same can be said for artists, musicians and just about everyone else walking beneath the same blue sky. We're all different from each other and this isn't a bad thing. In fact it's a very, very good thing.

As artists, and more specifically as human beings, I think that we make the mistake of thinking that everyone shares the same hopes, dreams and desires as we do. People are different. Everyone dreams of different things. Has different desires. Different plans. Different goals. It's a mistake to think that because someone else isn't following the same path we've laid out for ourselves that they have somehow 'gone astray'.

Do your own thing, sit back and let others do theirs. After all, it's our diversity and our differences that makes this world interesting.
