How can I be anything ordinary with you around? You have the belief in me that I sometimes don't have in myself - but I know that I deserve. Ah, Mom. How can I be anything ordinary with you around?

But, you survived it as you always do!! It is just the story of your life - for this moment. FOr your life has So many wonderful joyous moments to be filled up with. IT IS THEIR LOSS to go though life with blinders on and never see outside the box.( Really you / carol burnett ain't too far outside the box to me.) And, don't stop dreaming of that show you write yourself - you can do it and it would be AWESOME!!! I dreaded reading of that night and that moment. But, you survived it as you always do!!

It was tough for me to write & make such personal feelings so public, but I knew that it might speak to many Creatives out there. It's also nice for me to strip away the Superwoman/Supercoach persona and allow myself to be more vulnerable to my readers. Hopefully it will open the door to good things. Thanks again for the support! Oh, thanks Sophie – that means a lot. It was tough for me to write & make such personal feelings so public, but I knew that it might speak to many Creatives out there.

Isn't it amazing how strong feelings evoke wonderful words? This brought tears to my eyes because I feel your sadness. I am sure there are many people reading this and just holding a supportive space right now. Warmest, Sophie Thank you for sharing, beautifully wrote.

And don't worry - I've been getting coachy on myself and I DO see the "good" that has come out of it, or the reinforcement as to all of the amazing things I have in my life as a result of not pursuing acting full-time anymore. I'm hoping to blog about that this weekend, but no - I can't honestly say, "This was such a great experience!" Because the way it was presented to me and the way it was handled - by people I felt safe with & trust(ed) - really put me through the wringer. I've dusted myself off though, so don't worry about lil' ol' me. I'll take the hug, though. Thanks. Thanks, Joanne.

That sucks. I'm not going to get all coachy on you right now; I don't think that would be helpful or supportive at this time. So I will just send you a hug, and say "there, there." I hear you.
