1.) God. Because it is He whose sustains me.
2.) Family. My mother is the only immediate family I have left. I love her with all my heart, and I'm proud of her and proud to call her mother.
3.) Friends. Without friends I'd have no one to talk to aside from God and my mother.
4.) My pets. Pets are practically more human than we realise, and petting them, interacting with them, and loving them can be very soothing and rewarding, as I'm sure it is for them. ^^
5.) Art. That I might channel my feelings into a positive contruction and have the happiness in knowing I created something good.
6.) For the Games Workshop hobby which includes assembling and painting miniature models which double as pieces for a table-top strategy war game that can be played with others with similar or different armies.
Without this hobby, I'd have empty free time and I wouldn't always want to just draw.
You also meet new people when going to battles in the GW stores or in tournaments. Its nice to be able to look forward to making a friend or more from that, which I have.
7.) Musical instruments. While I abandoned learning to play the violin, I nonetheless love its sound which pierces my heart and truely moves me if played just right. Hopefully someday I can get back to practicing, and be a violinist, and give to others what the violin gave to me.
8.) Movies. Without movies to suppliment t.v viewing, entertainment would be boring.
9.) World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Despite the fact its been made to be a male soap opera I still enjoy it, even because of the storylines as predictable and set up as they and the wrestling are.
For the Undertaker. My all time favorite wrestler since I was a kid. Its through him that I enjoy the business, and await some ass kicking show for show, dark side style. Its a shame he'll be leaving soon.
10.) Japanese Animation. Without japanese animation I wouldn't know that there is something better than Looney Tunes and even the Simpsons. While the Simpsons has lasting staying power, each individual anime I've seen and this own is very compelling in one way or another. The quality of everything is top notch, superceding even America's standard of quality in the animation business. Also, Japanese animation has been around just about as long as regular cartoons. I'm grateful to know it has such a pronounced history.
If not for japanese animation, I wouldn't be able to draw manga style pictures. What a loss that would be for me. Also, I wouldn't come to know the truely deep characters the creators create and just as well, the voice actors, american, japanese, spanish, and even french and others.
Japanese animation is more than just entertainment, its a phenominon, and I am glad to be a part of it both as a viewer and artist, and also as an apsiring voice actor.
11.) For diversity. Because lets face it, if everyone were me or you there would be a big problem! LOL ^___^
12.) For the universe. Because lets face it, we're running out of space and we'll need another planet to consume and squander. 😛
