Seriously though, you just discovered that the world isn't a level playing field for everyone. People are not equal and life is not fair. So what are you going to do about it? Bitch and complain or work your ass off to improve? Someone said something once that really stuck with me (paraphrasing): Years are going to pass by regardless if you draw or not, so you might aswell keep drawing. If you fast forward five years would you be at a better place if you kept drawing or just quit altogether?
