In what other field do you have so much control and freedom to create?
No matter how much someone directs you on how to program something, you always have that little bit of wiggle room to add your own creativity to it.
Programming is like art. The coding is the medium. The thoughts and solutions, when it all works together, just feels right.
My job when it goes into stuff other than programming, I find myself coding at night to feel that structure, control, creativity and freedom all rolled into one.

Most other fields don't offer that.
