Underlying muses

I know of the girl who studied law but knew in her bones the painter's blood that ran in her veins. I know of the boy who changed courses multiple times based on the advice and suggestions of his elders, because he hadn't found his comfort zone yet. I know of the girl who went into university because of her best friend, or because of a boy, or because of a celebrity idol far away who was a success in the same field. I know of the boy who is now working in an office that moves creatively, so different from the rigid education that he had taken in college.

So many of us have taken on decisions that has affected our lives, based on someone else.
