FRIENDS LEND A HAND AND CLICK THE AD ON THE RIGHT, THIS WILL HELP OUT A BIT THANK YOU>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hello Friends! I hope ALL IS WELL with YOU! Here in my region the weather is literally blizzard conditions, many people are stuck in their homes due to so much snow we have got and we are STILL getting it! I hate winter and I hate the bitter cold. It really does a number on my physically...phew! So today was a long snowy day, I was scheduled to have two auditions today in St.Louis,Missouri. With the blizzard and the dangers that come along with it, I felt it was a smart idea to cancel them....even though this HIGHLY disappointed me. It actually turned out good! The first casting director knew of the weather issue so she kindly rescheduled me and the other audition I was able to actually do over SKYPE....something I have never done. I've been to hundreds of different auditions for many many gigs, but never have I had a casting director be so nice to let me use a computer program(SKYPE) to audition. So I feel good about both auditions...I will keep you updated. Tonight I think I am going to make some homemade chilli, not sure how good it will be but I can cook when I actually want to lol....I just usually don't like to cook much. Today is a perfect day for a nice relaxing evening to stay warm and have some good ol' homemade chilli and perhaps a good book or film to watch. I may actually get slap happy and make a few side dishes to go with the chilli LoL...I spoke with a good friend also today from France, which leads to why I even blogged today....I really think it's A great thing having an online/social media presence is being able to make friends from other all over the world. One of those friends inspired me today,that is the reason for today's blog topic.. My friend "laura", who lives in Europe and I were catching up like we do every once in a while. After our regular chats and updates, the conversation always comes back to how we are coping with life since our last friendly "session." During our talk, I'm reminded inside of how things can actually creep up on you. I start to wonder where the time went or how I lost track from all those goals I had set out for myself through the years. "Laura" said it so perfect, "It's like a drift. If you're not actively driving, then we drift... and that's okay as long as we decide to turn the engine on again and make progress on our route." That statement of her's totally and simply blew me away! It's so true that so many of us abandon whatever it is we want for ourselves because we momentarily "rest" from actively pursuing it. We have to remind ourselves now and then to reconnect to our inner self. Pray and Meditate, manifest those things we wish, and release old beliefs and thought patterns that hold us back. Realize the power within yourself. During lauras's epiphany she, "realized the power thats within me, and now I am like the superhero who discovers her powers and flies into the garage 100 times." lol! In that statement she hit something I often think about, perseverance. Sometimes we all need to fail 100 times before you discover what works. Sometimes you need to try again until we finally bear the fruit of our labors. Most importantly, she spoke about not giving up, keeping the faith, and staying the course. This my friends is very inspiring to me personally. More inspiring than any quote or post on the internet. The type of inspiration you want to be around. The type of people who have positive energy, thats what we all need to be around. We need to keep reinventing and loving ourselves until it all becomes clear. These challenges are to test our thoughts, beliefs, spirits, etc., and sometimes even our faith. When they rock you to your very core they should inspire change. A new way of thinking. A new way of doing things. That is good. The outcomes are entirely up to us...So the next time you're sitting there disappointed or depressed about not achieving a goal or such, just remember these awesome words by my friend "Laura". 'It's never too late to turn your engine on and continue on your route"
