Sometimes things don’t go the way you were thinking, but then with hindsight you can’t see them going any other way. There are some projects I auditioned for that I didn’t get, and was really bummed about, but then months later while working on new and exciting ones I realize that if I had booked that other gig I wouldn’t be having the amazing experience I am now.
I’m one of those people who likes to think that everything happens for a reason, but has severe trouble accepting or believing it in the moment of a harsh disappointment. It isn’t until later, with hindsight that I realize the path. I need to get better at really believing it at the time.

August 1, 2013I struggle with the same thoughts. I'm so thankful for the doors that have closed in my life because they have led me to try new doors – ones even more exciting and perfect than any I could of imagined. For some reason though that still hasn't diminished my pouting when life doesn't go according to my plans.

August 2, 2013That is exactly what I mean. When it happens it still hurts like anything. I wish I could control that better.
