The writer in me
This is the very first thing I ever actually wrote and "published" https://vocal.media/fiction/sweetest-love-eyl8os00sr and that was only a couple months ago. I wrote it as a fluke really, but loved the process of thinking it up and putting it down in the computer. Sure, I wrote poems when I was a teenager and they were full of teenage angst and morbid thoughts. Maybe I will find them one day and put them here too....maybe not.

Uniquely Me
Everyone wants to fit in and be accepted but sometimes it’s hard. I have been on Earth for quit some time. I know the pressures of trying to fit in; of trying to fit a mold. Even growing up in my family I was different and trying to fit in for instance I have red hair and freckles. Being different from my siblings also contributed to trying to break a mold they created in school. My siblings were trouble makers and older than me so going to the same school after them the teachers assumed I was a trouble maker too. I had to prove I was different while still trying to fit in and this was just elementary school.

Spirit Resurrected
One of the most difficult questions I ever had to answer when I was a child was a rather simple one: what do you want to do when you grow up? The problem I had wasn’t that I didn’t have an answer, but rather I had answers that were considered radical or virtually impossible. For example, I had the same aspirations of becoming an astronaut like a lot of kids. Following the list as the answer changed over time, it came to include things like musician, artist, and engineer.

Mrs. Doubtfire
Stop the presses; there is a new family musical in town and it is as bold as it is great! Coming into the theater this evening I did not know what to expect in that I had no idea how director Jerry Zaks would adapt this musical from the movie of the same title. Robin Williams who starred in the movie is not easily replaceable in this role, however, Mr. Rob McClure put that worry to rest in quick order .Like Williams, McClure had all the energy in the world on stage and he commanded this role with ease. Zaks, a master director had the entire cast in a whirlwind of energy and excellence.
