Antonio Gonzalez
Born and raised in Upper Manhattan, and now residing in the Northwest quadrant of the Bronx, I have been exposed to many different cultures, talents, careers, and past times. Been all over the place, done alot of things, even tasted a few different careers.
Now, I define myself by the art I produce, whether it is a video or photograph, whether it is the words I write in a blog or a website I design. If it doesn't provoke you, move you, cause you to say "Wow, that's beautiful" or even a friendly "LOL", than it's not art. And therefore, it's meaningless.
We live in a society in which we define our meaning by what we have, what status we have at our job, what year our car is, whether our iphone is the latest and greatest. I choose to define my life by how many others I have influenced in a positive way. Now. Not when I get to the top or win the lotto or finish grad school. Now.
Because now is the only thing that is ever truly guaranteed in life.
