I am an artistic person, but I am also interested in  politics, economy, psychology and sociology.  I find these topics significant, because they show how people interact with other people and money (which is one of the most powerful things in our society). I like to pore relationships between humans and see the results of their behaviour, because a human's life consists of his actions and choices. And I find it very important to have freedom and make your own life in the way you like it. Obviously, it’s a big responsibility to make right decisions, but I think it’s good to have mistakes, because I can learn from them and make conclusions from the situation. Speaking about mistakes - I try to not regret anything, because I can’t change the past. In my opinion, it’s better to focus on the present, because no one knows how long we will be here - on our planet, with our family and friends. Present is all we have, but people often forget it and think too much about the past or future. I agree that the future is also important, but I try to teach myself that it’s the present that I should enjoy now. 

I often hear stereotypes that say ‘’art and music will not bring you money’’, ‘’art and music is just a hobby, you should have more serious job’’, but I am tired of  everyone who thinks that money is the priority of everything. Personally speaking, the most important thing is the process and joy that you receive from work. In this case I agree with saying ‘’if you get a job that you like, you will never have to go to work’’. I have been inspired to this mindset from one of my favourite latvian music band ‘’Carnival Youth’’. I  accidentally found them on Youtube, then I went to their concert in 2019. These was one of the best feelings I have ever felt. When they played music, it seemed like the whole world was quiet for them, they didn’t pay attention to anything except the instrument in their hands. This band charmed me with their attitude to music and changed my mindset about work, music, lifestyle and about nature as well. So now I started to enjoy life outdoors more than before. I find it relaxing and in nature I can feel more calm. I think it’s because nature has one of the greatest kind of music. And when I am feeling so great, I often picture these moments. One of my favourite things to do is photography, but not with casual cameras or phones. I take photos with film cameras and someday I would like to develop photos by myself. I like film photos more than digital, because they have more aesthetic and special vibe. And the waiting process when the film is developing is very exciting, because sometimes I forget what photos I have made, so when I see developed film for the first time, I go back to that moment when the picture was made.
