Eh, no one says “how sad” when a person’s Identity is creating art. I’m an engineer so I create practical things, but that doesn’t mean I have less passion for what I do.

Having passion for something and using it as the basis of your identity are two very different things. If a painter says that painting is their identity, yes, I would say that was sad too.

Why should any one thing be your whole identity?
