No, I will not talk about such a person (after such a long time of not showing up with any posts). I'm sure if I were to pick anybody out from a crowd, s/he would know who the heck he is. Well, at least they could name his most famouse work: Mona Lisa's Smile (more famously known after that movie was so strongly promoted, and [what I heard] was not that good after all).
Anyway... The point is, I'm here to write how talented Leonardo was. Afterall, he was a scientist, a painter, a musician, an architect... and loads more (according to Wikipedia). Damn is he a man of many wonders.
My point is, for someone born in the early ages (to be precise, a Renaissance man), he could use both sides of his brain, both creativity and logical thinking, which definitely impresses me. Moreover, it inspired me ever since I was a kid.
Which then leads to a question I've always wanted to ask: Why is it that people think the arts have not much of a future, while the sciences will guarantee one to a better, well-paid job, education-wise?
I was told it would be hard for me to find a job, if ever I were to pursue a career in the field of music. I would think otherwise. For one clear reason, even music teachers get quite a good-month's pay for teaching naughty brats throughout the days. The brats wouldn't be a problem if it were something one likes to do.
What ever happened to the idea of doing what you like to do? Think about it: would you rather wake up to a job which you dread every morning, which then makes you want to either quit, make excuses to skip the day's work, OR wake up to something exciting and adventurous which you like so much, and gives you the adrenaline to kick-start the day, without the help of coffee?
Yeap, it makes a whole lotta difference. You should try it. Change the way your life treats you badly. Don't slave yourself through your life. You wouldn't want to regret not doing something. Afterall, you're still young. =)
