EDIT 11/28/2019: I have a video for you guys that covers this journal. At this point we are remembering things we are thankful for and appreciate. A lot of people could love and support themselves more. I hope that this can be useful and help you appreciate the skills you do have, or goal you are working towards. It's great for listening to while you work or if you don't want to read a really long journal. LOL

I have been drawing since I was very young and honestly do not remember when I even started doing it, but I do remember always enjoying it and seeing it as my 'talent' throughout elementary and middle school. By the time I had to make a career choice in high school, I decided to do pursue it professionally because I just couldn't stand dividing my time between schoolwork and making my personal drawings.
