Description
Appreciating life is a lot easier when you've given up everything but the clothes on your back and you're on a train to nowhere. Somehow, you realize that you've never had it all before. Once you take a look at all the untouched beauty, you realize that everyday luxuries aren't comparable to experiencing life first-hand. When you have nothing to worry about, and all the time in the world, you can appreciate things more greatly than before.

Until this idea sparked in my mind, I had thought I had it all. But, as this mission grew, I started to realize how much more I could gain through giving up most of all that I own. I couldn't be happier with the decision I've made.

Of course I'll go back home. Maybe. But until then, I'll appreciate what God has given us, and have it all. Because, once I go back home, I'll be pulled to a lifestyle where I have to sleep at a certain time, work at a certain time, eat at a certain time, and see only certain things at certain times of the day. I won't be able to move freely, wherever and whenever I like. I'll have to measure what I do, for it all has a cost in that lifestyle.

So, until the day comes where I'll need to return home, I'll fall asleep to traintrack lullabies and wake up to sunrises that could change the world..

:] Done!

I don't have much more to say about it, I guess. I just spent the last 40 minutes writing the short story behind the picture.

Inspiration behind this picture was William Fitzsimmons and his music! That and the idea of being able to just live freely, without any barriers. I don't even remember when I first started drawing this picture, but I know it was Fall of last year.

Hopefully the time was well spent.

Tools: Photoshop, paper, and pencil.
Time spent: ? Beats me!
