I have come to further believe that the purpose in life is to love. Where love is an entity both separate and united with all things, good and bad. It exists within all of us, but only ever to the capacity with which we allow. No matter the definition, it is the one most pure, […]
Awakening. Induced paralyzation. Voiceless. Willful. Faint sounds of my own voice through a locked jaw. A Gray cat enters, injured. One, three inch bolt. Breaking free. Screaming. Searching.

“I don’t know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see […]
I was supposed to send this to 12 people for my wish to come true. So I have 4 days to find 12 readers. Or I’ll just post this for anybody who stumbles upon it: – May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. […]
Who am I? What do I want? How will I get it? What are my obstacles? How will I move past those obstacles to achieve what I want? In acting, these are the first questions we are taught to answer for every character, for every scene. But the situation bears reasoning, why shouldn’t we also […]
The start to one very long, recurring post. Here is a quote of the day from a friend. Worth reading, sharing, applying and living by. More to come…. “But the eyes are blind. One must look with the heart . . .” “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. […]
