The Episodic Thoughts of Hamp

All of my life I’ve been a jack of all trades and master of none sometimes to my own detriment. I have abilities and talent that required study and development. For some reason or turn in life, I never took the chance to fully develop as a singer, instrumentalist, commercial artist, cartoonist, comedian, or actor. I love the arts but never could settle on one field. Nor put in the work and study required to excel in either category. I also love the world of business; always imagining myself as a man in charge. I attribute that to my Leo sign. As a Dept. of Defense employee, career success was realized by beginning as a Supply Clerk and retiring as Director of Small Purchase. In self-employment ventures, I had the ideas and skills but lacked the funding. I also found my interest varied as an entrepreneur. I love the service aspect of business, especially helping people. Yet, I am always drawn back to the arts. Those varied experiences, compelling interest and parental inherited common sense led me to writing social commentary. Whether it’s humorous or serious political commentary, my perspective differs from the norm.
