“Mom, I Wanna Be an Artist!”

Abstract
hen I was nine, I figured out that the people who call the shots are usually the ones who are better spoken, who speak more, or at least, those who speak most eloquently. For example, my mother wielded power over me because she spoke more and more effectively, as did my teachers, the mayor of my hometown... and in general, most of the people behind desks, counters or podiums were people who expressed themselves with great clarity and gave a lot of orders.
