The Journey


    Acting season is over and disappointed I saw missed opportunities to work. I was getting used to the idea when out of the blue my agent called me to tell me I booked a job. It wasn't the job of my dreams but it gave me a taste of doing what I love again, if only for one day. I played a socialite that is in the market to buy a yacht with her husband. She is recently married and is in a hurry to have kids. He on the other hand is not in a hurry at all. Even though they both come from rich families she is money conscious and wants to stick to their budget, He goes with the flow and is willing to pay more for the yacht he falls in love with.

In my character's shoes I felt the joy of being in a relationship. This episode is not only about showing the couple's rich lifestyle but it is about compromising and seeing life through your other half’s glasses. I missed that feeling. I wanted to be there again, to accept someone with an open heart so you go beyond what makes sense to some. It’s important to put your fears to the side while you do this. I want to experience that, perhaps for the first time ever. Unlike my character I probably will get there without the expensive yacht but I want to set sail towards that journey. Sure there could be days where is sunny and warm but other days will prove your strength with high choppy seas. After all no one can predict the weather for sure and no one can predict where a relationship will head to. It is very important to get in that relationship boat knowing that not all days will be calm, being in love is knowing that even in rough seas what keeps you in dry land is allowing to ground yourself in one another in order to enjoy a smooth sail together once more.
