I was in a restaurant this evening ( so what's new about that.....) and I ran into Jim Mellen,Esq. of Nahant and we were talking about our old friend " Billy " Kelley from Cambridge ,Nahant ,South End ,Swampscott, Newburyport , New Hampshire , Sarasota , Florence,Italy and the Cape........and probably some other places I have forgotten or do not know about.
Who is this guy ? let me tell you.....He was just like the rest of us thinking of our future ahead of us and trying to figure our way.......Most of us were studying business, law, etc. and that included " Billy "................however he was dreaming.......of what you ask ?
sketches, straight lines, water colors, bright colors, sky scenes, landscapes........So what happened is we all worked and after he figured out how to have money not an " issue " he lived his dream and continues to do it even to this day !
He is a world traveler with friends like the lead singer of AC/DC , and a famous Nun......
He is the type of person who has painted his own "masterpiece" of life by living his dream.....as his artistic reputation continues to grow.I hear he has not let fame take over with the exception of his "stage" name William....
It is something to reflect on in your own existence and where you are going....Remember if you like what you do....you will be great......
