Description ~ I feel blessed yet cursed to know I have so many options for life.
~ I am blessed because I have the freedom to do anything I want to do.
~ I am cursed because I know I cannot do everything I want to do and be everything I want to be in my lifetime.



*EDIT: I'm sorry the image is a bit blurry, sadly I lost the ProCreate file and only had this PNG to use *cries*

As I'm sure many of you know, I change my MLP OC every few months.  I go through phases and I cannot seem to ever settle on anything.  As of right now I am making myself stick to my most recent update -not because I'm 100% happy with it- but because I just need to stick with something. I drew this as a sort of homage to my indecisive personality (this is gonna get real deep here).

There are so many things I want for my life.
I want to get married, have children, have amazing adventures with friends, and make a difference in this world. 
I want to impress people and show them they were wrong about me, I am smart, talented, and I can do anything I put my mind to. 
At different points I have wanted to be a surgeon, an artist, animator, stay-at-home-parent, receptionist, farmer, translator, flight attendant, police officer, off-the-grid-crazy-cat-lady, barista, veterinarian... and those are just some of the whims I've had.  Sometimes I look back at my short life and wish that I had started med school sooner, and other times I feel like I have so much time left to pursue anything I want to.

I think my MLP character represents this inner struggle:
- First I made her fluffy and pink because I want to be the nicest, cutest, sweetest person my friends know.
- Then she was dark and monochromatic because I want to be thought of as serious, intelligent, and revered.
- Next she's a simple earth-toned pony to match my hippie-dippy, tree-hugging -will go through the garbage can to recycle everything- side.
- Now she is a dim-coloured earth pony, representing the fact that no matter how much I wish I could be a pegasus, earth-pony, and a unicorn, I can only be one.

I don't mean to make this post depressing, it's really just to allow me to vent and get it out.
I really do have a great life with amazing people supporting me, I just need to figure out what to do with it,
and that is no-one else's burden but my own.

Venting your emotion is not necessarily depressing. Also, i dont see any issue with you switching your OC. I am basically doing the same, but doing it a bit differently. My main OC´s are a representation of me, my fantasy, dreams and are parts of myself.
