You’re a dime a dozen, just like me. What a relief, what a weight off your shoulders. You can just… be free, be normal. Finally, no more forcing yourself into the archetype of a struggling artist by refusing to do the bare minimum to make life easier. No more hating yourself for having to take a part-time job to afford rent. You can finally embrace your true nature as one of the millions of people who recognized the value of being normal, and get to ride off into the sunset knowing that they’ve done pretty well, all things considered.
