If I didn't have my art (my creative human  imagination) especially when I felt trapped underneath the pain, I felt like I would have sunk without the healing.

I am grateful for existence because it is always within reach. Always. And it makes all these hard feelings subside and intensify but in the right ways does It grow the spirit to another level.

Our Mental Health is so important on so many levels as actors and as artists. Our sanity and our ability to feel fully, but also to feel intensely, and create something from the simplest form, to go all the way, and be unafraid to express it, to take criticism and feedback openly, and also to be alive with awareness is the underlying of gratitude for what we have and what we are given as the one who “performs”, who shares an inside story with an outside world, who takes notice of the ones who are suffering and does something about it, to create impact through our bodies, through words, through the Self. That is Soul Giving. And our greatest gift.

To breathe and to express outwardly an inward struggle that bubbles up daily is not a cowardly act or just for a person who is meant to struggle, because that doesn’t exist. This is for everyone, every artist, every souls who is meant to thrive and excel living their purpose. This gift is to give of ourselves for ourselves and own it, so that we may share it through our love for others.
Then we can get a glimpse inside the crack of light we continue to hand the world over.
