HETERONYM 5: LIVE

Nathan promised himself he would truly live this year, not just count the days. He left his old job, moved to the coast, and began streaming lessons online to earn money. Each night, he went live, teaching viewers how to paint waves in watercolor. The camera made him nervous at first, but soon the chat filled with familiar names and quiet encouragement. When a student sent him a photo of her first painting, he realized this was what it meant to live—to share what you love and still wake up eager to begin again.
