Artistic Oppression

This one is for all of my artist friends out there. Has growing up and becoming apart of the "real world" cause you to have to put y0ur art by the way side? Well if not you are very lucky, but for many of the artists that I know that is exactly what is happening. In this great quest to become a responsible adult, the things that we love get kicked aside. I HATE IT. I feel like my life is being drained out of me. Drama and acting had been such a large part of my life and now I barely get the chance to catch a play. It is the worst. So now I am on a quest to figure out how to pump the arts and life back into my veins. If anyone has any outlets or suggestions please let me know.

It's so difficult to juggle the two (the work you love & and the work you need) that i've actually had to sit down and write a contract with MYSELF promising to take at least an hour a day, any hour out of the 24, to devote to my writing. Hey, if you can't have faith in your own word, who else will? It's worked out well since in some sick way, i'm trying not to let myself down by breaking the contract.

Thanks Kiyotoe for the advice. I think I will have to sit down and work out a little contract for myself. Good idea.
