To Stand Strong

There have been countless times when I’ve been self-conscious about who I am, what I look like, and etcetera. However, I’ve come to realize that I can’t change who I am. Instead, I pursue to stand strong, which, I have found to be equally as difficult.

I am Korean. I am Christian. I am 5’6”. I am a female. I love rock/alternative music. I love pictures of dogs that have been stung by bees. I love indie films. I fanaticize of traveling all over the world. I love the arts. In fact, I love the arts so much I want to work in the field of arts for the rest of my life. I want to use art as a medium for inspiration. I want my art to inspire people, adults and children, females and males, alike, to keep dreaming. To keep fighting for the people and things that bring them joy and happiness.

My journey into this field hasn’t even begun, but I know it’s going to be long and difficult. I have a feeling that at certain times it’s going to suck; I’m afraid. I’m willing to be afraid and I’m willing to suffer in order to get where to I want to be, because I know it'll be worth the fight. We don’t always have to live in constant stability, it’s okay to be afraid, as long as we stand strong in who we are.
