Who am I

Who am I 💠
Good morning, afternoon, & night - wherever you are.
My name is Kelleigh Benson and
I am someone who:
Always wants more
Finds the light and art in most things
Wants to be different yet blend in
Makes genuine relationships easily
Enjoys making new art from existing art
Has an eye for complexity
Life has a funny way to it. You are taught to go to college, get a degree, get a job, and do that for the rest of your life. What is your dream job? Simple. A dream, something that makes you happy and content, a way of life, shouldn’t be a job - it’s a lifestyle. Everybody gets a job that they think they wanted (or dreamed of) but everyone wants more. They need more. So will I ever be content? This isn’t to stay I wish to be at home doing nothing all day, sure, it can be relaxing but it’s unhealthy. People chase a healthy lifestyle, what makes them happy, love, and change - but does this ultimately lead to happiness? Someone has to have an answer.
I don’t even think I can put into words what my ‘dream’ would be. Happiness? Yes. Expressing myself through art that people actually enjoy and want to see more of? Sure.
Struggling with finances in this system to buy a house, have kids, move to a big city, buy eggs ($10 for 18 eggs right now? Shit, maybe my journey is having a farm raising chickens) But no.
So much uncertainty in this world not allowing ourselves to be at peak/full potential, it’s depressing. Life can’t be just to wake up, go to work, come home & make dinner, snoozing. 40 hours per week, 7 days a week, rushed weekends, getting pumped when it’s Friday? I just entered the corporate world, how do people do it for the rest of their life? Sure, I can be content doing this for the rest of my life but does it mean I’ll be happy - we’ll see. Updates to come for sure.
Is this just how things are supposed to be?
Apologies for this not being an uplifting first blog.. just letting my fingers do the talking.
