THE ESSENCE OF INNOCENCE THAT TITLE AND LINE CAME TO ME YESTERDAY BUT I WASN'T SURE WHAT I WANTED TO SAY ABOUT IT TIL THIS MORNING....SEEMS ABOUT RIGHT...
ALWAYS LOVED THE MOVIES AND TV...ALWAYS WANTED TO BE IN THEM OR A PART OF IT. DIDN'T LIKE AUDITIONING SO EXTRA WORK WAS PERFECT FOR ME...YOU GET TO BE A PART OF IT WITH NO PRESSURE...I WAS IN MY H.S. PLAY. I PLAYED GRANNY IN ON BORROWED TIME...I REALLY HAD TO BE ON MY TOES CUZ OUR GRAMPS GOT THROWN IN LATER ON IN THE GAME CUZ THE ORIGINAL GRAMPS GOT A REAL PART IN A REAL PLAY...ANYWAY LOTS OF IMPROV AND ANSWERING WHERE HE JUMPED TO BUT BRINGING HIM BACK TO WHERE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE CUZ OTHERWISE THINGS WOULD NOT MAKE SENSE TO THE AUDIENCE...VERY HIGH PRESSURE....I COULD DO WITHOUT...I OFTEN HAVE ACTOR'S NIGHTMARES WHERE I AM IN A PLAY AND I GO COMPLETELY BLANK AND THERE IS NO SCRIPT IN SIGHT AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHO I AM OR WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO SAY OR DO...IT IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE....THOUGHTS ON ACTING...I ADMIRE THOSE WHO DO IT. IT TAKES A LOT OF COURAGE TO JUMP IN THERE AND DO THAT AND ENTERTAIN OTHERS. IT CAN BE VERY SCARY.
SOMEBODY POST A LIST OF THINGS SHE WOULD OR WOULDN'TR DO AND IT MADE ME THINK OF THAT WHOLE DRESS TO IMPRESS NONSENSE....I NEVER ENJOYED HAVING TO WEAR SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR ANYTHING...I PREFER TO BE CASUAL AND COMFORTABLE...WHEN I WENT TO HAWAII ON VACATION ONCE I TOTALLY FIT IN THERE...ANYWAY IF SOME KIND OF SPECIAL WARDROBE IS REQUIRED YOU WON'T FIND ME THERE. I AVOID THAT NONSENSE....
I WAS WATCHING SOMETHING AND THIS CHARACTER WAS LEAVING A MESSAGE ON AN ANSWERING MACHINE AND SHE KEPT CHANGING IT CUZ SHE WASN'T SURE EXACTLY WHAT SHE WANTED TO SAY AND WHEN SHE FINALLY SENT THE MESSAGE SHE ENDED WITH CORDIALLY...AS A SIGN OFF...i HADN'T HEARD THAT WORD USED IN A LONG TIME AND IT MADE ME THINK OF CORDIAL CHERRIES SO I WROTE THIS SILLY THING...
THE FIRST TWO LINES POPPED INTO MY HEAD FOR NO APPARENT REASON BUT I DECIDED TO TURN THEM AROUND...PRETTY SURE I HAVE USED DROWNING IN A SEA OF SORROW BEFORE IN ANOTHER POEM SOMEWHERE IN TIME...QUITE AWHILE BACK...
SOMETHING TO BE AWARE OF IS THE MORE CENSORSHIP YOU SEE INDICATES AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF PROPAGANDA. PROPAGANDA DOES NOT DEFEND THE LIES IT TELLS BUT SILENCES THOSE WHO TELL THE TRUTH TO EXPOSE THEIR LIES. KEEP THAT IN MIND. TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS AND INTUITION. TRUST THE VIBE YOU GET. PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT IS GOING ON. SPEAK UP WHEN YOU CAN. KEEP IT SIMPLE. KEEP IT REAL. TRUTH
