    Dear Anita,

    I saved some money by working. It may just enough for me to finish my art if i plan it carefully.
    However, I feel exhausted to see my bank account always drop to the lowest and I was just lucky to got a job that enabled me to save money which I no longer work there anymore.

    After graduation, I am not sure how I can go forward.
    I will have no money to rent a studio or art material.
    If I take a full time job, I will have no time to make my art.

    It seems my dream is getting far away from me already.
    I regret that I did not make a clear direction of my art career and now I become a bit pathetic.
    I used to have a boyfriend who was well-planned, hard working and realistic that inspired me a lot. So after breaking up, I became very unclear what exactly I want and did not know how to move forward.

    Am I still suitable to be an artist with so much worries and doubts?
    How can I suppose to pursue my dream when life becomes more difficult for me?

    Dear Peter,

    Thanks for responding during my period of feeling lost.
    I don’t understand what following ones dream without attachment means.

    I feel that i am standing on the crossroad where I have to choose whether I should just pursue a full time job or keep working tedious job so I can continue my art. However, the balance between money and time is difficult. More than that, I did not build up any advanced skills for art making and in HK, so I need to think through whether I can continue. I have some track record but i stop making art for 2 months already. I feel I betrayed my dream but I don’t know what to do.

    I also regretted that I did not treat my dream seriously and made a good plan. I keep blaming myself but I know now is the power to change but I already don’t know how can I continue already.

    I always have self-doubt and lack of self-confidence. I had low self-esteem before but I spent few years to change that.

    I grew a lot as a person but I hope I can make peace with my reality and my dream.

    I think being 30 is my last chance to set a goal and start another journey. Just not sure what exactly I should pursue anymore.
    I just don’t want to follow the money-making mind and  want to do something enable me to go around and keep seeing the world.
