Being almost who you are......

I’ve noticed in myself and friends around me that living your dream to the fullest and being what you know you really are is the hardest thing. Very often you can become successful in the field close to the field you actually want to be in. A singer who struggles being a singer but can teach everybody else to sing, or a musician who ends up being a reporter writing about music or a painter who ends up being a teacher of art. These people can be very successful too in their almost dream proffesion but when it comes to being themselves they are (we are, cause I include myself here) weaker. Not sure about his or her art, performance, ideas about it, think think think. I guess since it means everyhting to us, we are vulnerable and so we don’t want to get refused or criticized so we don’t really put our heart on the line.
