Since 2016, I've been assisting a nonprofit organization named Aaron's House with a myriad of creative duties. They've even flown me in every May for the past 3 years for their annual fundraiser. In preparation for their 4 annual, when asked, I decided not to take the trip. I plan to continue helping but I have to maintain focus in LA. It's part of my commitment to my focus. My focus toward making/allowing something significant happen to my journey. It's time. I'm ready, open and available. I was chatting with my mom earlier this week (or perhaps last week) about my decision and she said, "You have a good spirit." She basically said my spirit guides me with my decisions.
In week 440, I got what was probably the best phone call in my acting journey. I was being considered for a show that wanted to hire me as a comedy actor/writer. I never heard back and but I've been on this journey long enough to know that one disappointing call leads to an encouraging one. Then on Saturday, of this week, I got a text asking about my availability and my answer lead to an immediate phone call. The details consisted of an an automatic booking for a feature film shooting out of town in May. No audition required. As a matter of fact, the call was from a director that I worked with recently. The project is still confidential and of course, nothing is officially confirmed until I sign a contract. Nonetheless, that phone call provided justification for not taking the Aaron's House trip to Florida in May (the dates conflict) and for also not booking the gig with Studio-C. If I got the Studio-C gig, I would've had to relocate to Utah immediately until September. There were several reasons not to accept but I would've bypassed those reasons for the single pleasure of working. Sometimes you have to let go and let God as they say in church. Also on Saturday, I got a phone call from a lady I met on Christmas day 2017. We both missed our flights and got to know each other meanwhile. She shared her writing updates with me and I shared my own. She also shared a beautiful bible Psalm in which I can't remember the verse but it spoke of establishment and it inspired me to share my story of Justification with her. My spirits and I are in sync. It's time. To the month of May and beyond.
