Type something. Erase it. Type something. Erase it.

What can I say? I feel it good right in the heart region. Excellent words.

I guess I could write a lot about my feelings now but I have been busy typing and erasing so I will stop now.

I agree with Friar – it’s time to quit when it’s no longer fun.

I’m not doing commercial auditions anymore because going on them became a chore. I hated going to them. It was just such a cattle call, a lot of people were rude and it just wasn’t worth it to me anymore. I’ll still go if the casting directors request me but that’s it.

Please don’t think I’m being high and mighty and trouncing commercials and commercial actors – I’m not. I did commercials for a long time… but it was making me hate being an actor.

This was a lovely and inspiring post Jaden! If everyone would follow your advice here, the world would be a happier place. For some, calling it quits whether it be a job, a marriage, a relationship, an addiction, fear can be a powerful thing.

I’ve always absolutely loved the song Vincent as well.

Thanks for this most elequently written post Jaden….C’était Magnifique!

Muzz — Nice points. I feel the same. When I am saddened by the crap that is put out, I remember the greats and select artists throughout time who I admire, who have unique expressions, who have truly added something beautiful to the world, and I forge ahead, hopeful that one day I will be to others what my favorites were to me.

I really like what you say, “perhaps my perfect reader has not yet been born!” Interesting perspective.
