Music is not the only thing you feel to your soul.

Your passion for writing and drawing is awesome.
Don't ever lose it.
My 14 yr old daughter has the same passion.
She spends most of her time writing fiction and drawing Anime.
I mean like 6 hour a day.

She's not on the phone and chatting with friends.
She writes and draws.
So I buy her anything she needs to enhance her abilities.

As far as you leaving your mark or a legacy.
YOU JUST DID by posting on NDN
I am thinking of copying all my posts from here and writing a book.
Problem is I would have to get written permission from every member here. Maybe it will be a collection of comedy.

Yeah I hope to never lose my passion. I didn't initally mean for the post to be this long, but I got kind of carried away.

It's great that you are encouraging your daughter.

That's honestly something my parents never did, and I wish they would have.

Not saying that they were horrible parents because they did the best I can, but I think I would've done better if I was encouraged back then and not now while I'm in my twenties making up for lost time.

Oh to be young again.

Isn't that easy to say but hard to do? Seems like it is for me at least.

I didn't learn this lesson till I was 31.

The 20's are full of emotional turmoil.

My best advice to people in their 20's is:

Be thoughtful about the decisions you make, because they can affect your entire life.

Having babies is very troublesome for young people, because it is easy for them to walk away from the child and mate. Then the state owns your *** for the rest of your life.

If you do have a child and find you can't live with the person you had the child with, it would be better to be roomates for 18 years than to pay child support for the rest of your life.

I know a guy who has 4 kids with 4 different woman and is not married.

He has to commit fraud to survive by working under the table.
No place wants to hire him because of all the child support paperwork
they would have to do.

He can't find a woman that will keep him because he can't make enough money to pay child support and a support a new family.

He's 51 and hating life.
