Reasons For Becoming A Musician?

Well, I didn't think there is already a thread (I've looked) but anyway, what was your reason for becoming or wanting to become a musician? Well, I've always loved music (even more so these past few years) and I decided after a few years to pick up the guitar. I've noticed while playing these past few years it can be a great way to meet new and interesting people, so I put even more time into playing.

I don't think I can rightfully call myself a musician yet because my playing is still lacking (even after lessons), but I never go a day without playing 2-3 hours. I just find it fun and not just a way to kill time. I was recently thinking about picking up the viola to help me better understand classical music and to get onto playing another instrument ya know, to mix things up a bit because playing one instrument can get a bit stale after awhile.
