I was sad - very very very sad - and then - he made me very very very happy.
He put me in a show and he has in just a few days pushed me to become a better dancer and performer than I knew I could be - and I am thankful.
I don't even think he is aware of how much hope he gave me - but he has - so thank you world for Austin. Thank you universe for at least giving me a little emotional jumper cable - and a teacher - and a mentor of sorts. Thank you!
Along with this - I need to throw out a thank you to Kat as well - who has been a most marvelous partner in crime - all crimes - of Mermaid obsessions to helping me disco dance and tap - to helping rent voice rehearsal rooms and sign into auditions and watch Disney Channel and look for theatres and read drafts of Giraffes. So yes - I am verrrrrrrrrrry thankful for Kat too!
I hope the feeling continues and grows - and happiness will just abound everywhere! There is a director (Who I admire greatly named Declan Donnellan) who says in our moments of most supreme happiness we are also experience a profound sadness for we know the feeling cannot and will not last. Not that is is my moment of most supreme happiness - but there is most certainly an ebullience of sorts - and a fear that the ebullience will disappear back into the muck. For now - I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy the starbust of smiles and inspirations.
Thank you.
:-)
