So I live in New York City but I'm from Louisiana. Some people may think I moved here because it's a cool city and I'm trying to live the life of a gossip girl. Some people may think I moved here to become famous. Some people think I moved here solely to dye my hair and start a blog. You are all correct.
Actually no. So let me tell you a little bit about myself.
I aspire to be a performer on Broadway. That is my main goal. I would also LOVE to be a backup dancer or even try to find my way onto the path of Saturday Night Live. But like I said, Broadway is my focus for now. To most of the world, performers on Broadway aren't famous or super rich. That is 100 percent, absolutely okay with me. I didn't choose to be a performer because of fame, but because of my honest passion for performing. Most likely I will work as a member of the ensemble (or backup) in musicals. I may not hit the jackpot doing that, but as long as I'm performing then I'm slap-happy.
Last night I had a dream that I was cast in my first Broadway show. I can remember being so elated. Then I woke up and felt totally crushed because it was just a dream. But that moment of elation (in the dream) has not left me. And it's fueling me to drive faster. It's fueling me to work harder. It's fueling me to strive for greater achievements. I absolutely will face challenges, but they won't keep me from pursuing my dream.
I saw a play over the weekend and this line was said a few times throughout the show - "To have faith is to have wings." I have faith that I can achieve my goals, and I'm ready to soar.
Obviously not everyone in this world aspires to be an actor. But I'm willing to bet everyone aspires to be SOMETHING or SOMEONE. I beg everyone reading this to never let that spark of energy in themselves fall flat. Please never allow yourself to be hitting your mid-life crisis and realizing you have major regrets. I sure as hell will not have regrets about following my passion.
Soar, friends. Soar.
