Sometimes, I feel like I have to keep plugging away because people will be disappointed if I don't. If we all don't bust our asses to meet our goals, then why should anyone? It feels like a responsibility and not always a welcome one, even if I also often perceive such thoughts as ludicrous -- I am so tiny and insignficant.


Just in case I am one of the 'people' mentioned, I would like to make something clear : I will be disapointed in you when you stop living your life as you see fit, in your own way, in your own time, and on your own schedule. If tomorrow you gave up acting and chose to be a yak farmer I would be just as supportive as I have been in the past. The way you live, and the way you bring the real as well as the absurd to life is the most unique and therefore the most valued item you bring to the table.

My belief in you trancends you the actor, you the dot commer, you the model and you the yak farmer. I see you the person - and your survival and passage through these things. Whatever you choose to do next - without exception , will at the very least be interesting, thoughtful, and give everyone pause.
