Absence of Light

Going broke is the obstacle which brought me the most challenges. There are basic social needs I have not been able to figure out. Dating is a major obstacle so I have put it on hold for the past 7 years. The extreme Isolation has made me more and more introverted. I easily can spend months at a time alone in my room creating art unaware I have not spoken to a single person. I admit, there is a part of me that enjoys the isolation immensely. I often grow out my beard as if I am playing a character in my own movie. I am not bound by outside judgments and this allows me to explore some interesting new ideas for my art. At times the loneliness of my life seems unbearable.The meaningful art I am creating gives me HOPE for a better future. There is a quote written by Simon Van Booy I relate to very much. “For lonely people, rain is a chance to be touched”
