It’s weird, I have no heroes beyond those I’ve created for myself. I don’t want to be the next Notch, i can’t be the next notch. I don’t want to be Patrick Rothfuss, i love his work but i don’t want to be him. I’ve never understood the idea of idolization. It seems pointless to me to want to try to follow in a persons shoes and live their life of success because it can never be done. I can never be Jerry because they are the pioneers themselves, I can only ever be an emulator of them. Instead I’m starting to realize my dreams is to do something that, in retrospect, is what they probably set out to do. I want to be able ot support myself and love what I do. That’s all any of these famous people set out to do, they didn’t like their normal jobs or they simply built their lives around their passion. That is why I idolize these people. (Specifically the PA guys) They have touched the hearts and souls of thousands of people, changed lives and saved them and they never once meant to. It’s an amazing thing that I can imagine how it would feel. I guess I have heroes afterall, they are just people who are living their lives and loving it, and somehow doing great things
