Quiet

Things are a little slow right now. Well. Ok. As far as actually A-C-T-I-N-G in something awesome.

We're just back from a whirlwind tour. Mostly traveling to festivals for one of our film's: California, Brazil, New Orleans. Then back to CA for a meeting with a potential manager. And Europe for some R and R and I think I may have found an agent for when I'm out there, and possibly and English speaking theater to do my solo show at. Fingers crossed on all fronts.

I even had a producer interested in taking my solo show on tour in Asia. But alas, for now that has fallen through.

Damn. I was already planning to get my picture taken while doing a handstand on the Great Wall of China!

So I realize right now, this is my time to go inward. I'm planning for next year a little bit. Fixing up my apartment. Contemplating looking for paid, mindless side work. I'm meditating. Going to the weekly Dharma talks at the Shambahla Center. It feels pretty good.

I just have to remind myself that I am on the path. It's quiet now for me acting wise. I dont dare compare myself to another actor. That's their path. This is mine. I'm looking forward to working in CA and in Europe more. To directing my own short sooner rather than later. And doing my solo show in San Fran. Yep, that's where I've decided my next move will be for the show: San Fran.

I cant say that I always love the quiet. I'm like any other actor. The quiet makes us nervous. We feel our career may be over! YIKES!!!

But listen, this is part of being on the warrior's path. I dont take every project that comes my way. I turn a whole lot of stuff down. Its gotta really hit a chord with me. And if it doesnt, I'm doing myself and the project a disservice by taking it anyway.....and I respect myself and the other person's work way too much for that.

So for right now, I'm making friends with quietness.
