Missing in Action Explained
I'm so sorry for being MIA for the past couple of weeks. I know I haven't been posting that often but honestly I just could not bring myself to do it. I wasn't in the best place at the time, negativity has been clouding over my shoulders. I felt guilty for leaving you guys with no content but mental health and well being will always come first. I can't make you guys happy if I'm not happy myself.
I learned however through it that sometimes the best way to get rid of the blues is to use it to create something artistic and let the negativity become an energy that you can channel into a piece. For me I worked on a spoken piece with the help of an amazing director Darren Thornton who always provides me with such wonderful acting opportunities. Each so different and they allow me to grow and change into a newer me as i push myself further beyond my boundaries. The acting workshops reboost my self-confidence especially when i'm finding it hard to put myself out there and do things and talk to people. I am given such unusual tasks that would normally make me feel uncomfortable that i'd never think of doing without the helpful nudge of the open-minded casts that i'm so grateful to have worked with. They make me feel safe, each person is on the same boat, not judging but wanting nothing more than to have a good time and work together to build something great.
I also wanna thank Temper-Mental Misselayneous, an amazing rapper and artist, i've never met someone so completely unique and fresh. Shes absolutely passionate about what life and what she does. Shes the kind of person that cant do anything half heartedly, everything she does get her full effort and she goes strong with her whole attention. Her personality is so precise and just woah, she knows exactly who she is and who she wants to be and of course she is still growing as a person just like anyone but she just comes across as someone who complete awareness of their own presence in life. I was completely taken aback by her confidence and she blew me away with her first impression. The first thing that came to mind when i heard her speak was INSPIRATION. Naturally seeing someone we made a judgement of how we think someone is gonna be based on appearance, we can't help it, its human nature. She was nothing at all that I expected her to be she proves without a doubt that you cant judge a book by a cover. Her whole aura is admirable. She comes with so much diversity within her own being and proves to be so so intelligent on so many different levels with words that i've never even heard of and knowledge of the most random-est of things. The journey and growth that shes had mentally and psychologically within herself is at a level that I one day wish to reach myself. I think that when your not at your best sometimes inspiration can set you back on track and show you the light. Reminding you to set a goal and show you that life always has a bright side and things to work towards even if you dont have a definite goal.
Anyways I've done enough rambling for tonight, I promise to try harder to post more regularly before school starts back and i'm pushed into the deep end of the intense studying of the Leaving Cert. Tomorrow is shoot day and im both nervous and excited so wish me luck.

Beautiful post! I agree that taking all the negative energy to create something is beautiful. It's something I'm trying to do more often.
