This is a personal topic I guess.
I grew up in a small town, I was around a lot of people and did a lot of normal things. As I grew into my early 20s I always felt off/uncomfortable with the life around me, felt like a loop of just going out, partying, same old stuff. It was fun in a way but I had this itch to pursue a career in music.
It's like I wore a mask to just fit in.
Since I've taken off the mask and left that life behind to pursue my craft, I don't connect with the previous life and the previous life doesn't connect with who I am today, so I'm like a lone wolf.
Saying that though, through my craft, I attract a lot of people via the internet which is really cool, people that I also respect, peoples work I admire, people I find interesting.
It makes me think, maybe I was suppose to shed my old life so I could pursue my craft that then leads me to the right people and a whole new life.
Anyone been through similar?
