Recently I was told someone thinks I should act my age. What they mean is conform to the way they think I should live my life. No way! We creatives are a quirky, odd bunch, and we are important in society. We should always hold our creativity sacred, especially when confronted by the “normal” world. A world without quirky creatives is a world without music, art, comics, movies, novels, and on and on. Don't ever cave in to other's views on how you should live.
