I want to say, in my home , I was always supported growing up, I still am now. My parents , both , came to all my poetry shows, painting shows. Uncles/aunts/friends of the family all supported me, never said ,i can't do or won't do or some negative else.
I know I am being very personal or selfish, but not all creatives were told by numerous people "to be realistic" which is really not about realism but about financial prudence.
