Not enough passionate

In one of my arts courses they asked me what would do if I have the time and money to develop my art. It's so simple, I responded, I would be writing stories for films and maybe would become a screenwriter. The following question was why you haven't done that? It was an opened question for all the group and the responses were because a lack of time and money because artists pay bills, need to have a roof over our heads and sometimes when we have a spare time, we develop our art projects. 
Besides that, I was reading an interview with Viola Davis, she said that passion and self acceptance allow her the to do her art and to get out of poverty, racism and violence. I think Viola is one of the best actress that I've ever known, but she was in the right place with the right people and she has specific features that also allow her to be ready for the acting opportunities. I am sure, there are a bunch of talented Viola Davis in the world that they are still struggling to pay the bills and to have any roof over their heads. 

If you are reading this, and you are still developing your art practice, and feeling that you are not enough passionate about that, that's not true, and this is also for me, you have achieved so much, you are in the healing journey, please enjoy the pathway, you are thriving, you are doing such a great job and you are passionate about your art. Keep doing it please, the world needs to see and know you throughout your artistic self.
