Knowing the Path and Walking the Path

I talk with people all the time. I'm a loner but there are a lot of people that I care about. You have to be very careful sometimes with people you love when it comes to talking about certain things in your life. The thing is, most of us are day to day types, some of us are dreamers and then there are those people that are driven. The third type usually walks a very lonely path. The day to day types aren't interested in the dreamers because all they do is sit and well, dream. The dreamers avoid the day to day folks because they don't want to hear the truth about themselves; They won't ever actually do anything.

That leaves the driven type person. This person is the one who doesn't associate with the dreamers or the day to day kinds. Day to day types confuse the driven types with the dreamers and as a result, they don't take the driven ones serious. The dreamers continue to come up with great concepts for others to actually execute. The driven shut everything out so they can get to where they are going.

So far I've been one of the driven.

But on the path to my destination I got sidetracked. I forgot who I was. I'm an artist. I am not a therapist, I am an artist. I am not a customer service agent, I am an artist. I am not a college graduate, I am an artist.

I think I know my path but unfortunately there are those that wish I would walk their beaten way. I was bitter at them at first but then I understood. I can't change them anymore than they can me. But in order for me to find what I'm looking for I have to turn the volume down on them.

I have a goal and that's all there is to it. I will get there.
