So first of all, by shit you mean culturally irrelevant, right? Not going to get someone famous, rich, admired etc.

To which my answer is of course: And?

The same could be said for any art form.

Most of it is not culturally relevant in any way. It doesnt mean it isnt fun to create, and its an enjoyable way to spend your time.

> 99.9 % of art is shit
> Why do you even try?

Well we try because creating is fun. Fun. Remember that? That thing we do because were bored?

If someone happens to enjoy reading what you wrote, then all the better.

I write. Little things. Im never going to be an author, and never expected to be. ive already got a career. But i enjoy writing. So i do it. If i had a steadier hand id draw too.

If you go through life constantly weighing what you're doing against what it will gain you in terms of money, admiration, fame etc. then all it shows if you are desperately uncomfortable in life and are striving to find value for yourself.

I value my life by enjoying my life.

I don't really care about your points

but I've always wondered: does it really matter if something has a purpose?
