All Kinds Of Love

"Holly Kennedy: Dear Gerry, you said you wanted me to fall in love again, and maybe one day I will. But there are all kinds of love out there. This is my one and only life, And its a great and terrible and short and endless thing, and none of us come out of it alive."

So for now all of us post-grads need to grab on and experience as much of life as we can, last year I went on the trapeze (I'm afraid of heights) it was the most freeing thing I've done in a long time.

I've counted my blessings and the minute I did that when I was feeling lonely while auditions are slow I started reconnecting to my friends. (This is something I talk about in my blog "You Can Have It All: Just Not at the Same Time"

I started this blog to help others and now I find everytime I write I'm helping myself.

It could be a small thing such as learning how to knit, starting a jogging routine, painting, writing, skateboarding, anything you've wanted to do but either didn't have the time or maybe the courage. Take baby steps and for kicks write out the type of life you'd like to have or a list of things you'd love to do before you die. Take that list, keep it with you. Start small say 15 easy things and five that are a bit more challenging or are a longer term goal that you could work towards such a marathon or a big rock climb or even writing a novel. Everytime you do something new or go out and do something that may scare you (EVEN an interview) remember this is our one and only life and it's a great and terrible and short and endless thing, and none of us come out alive. But there are all kinds of love out there and I am inspiring you to take a leap and find something that will bring you joy and love for your own personal self and even if you don't do well, decide not to continue, hate it or decide once you get there it's not for you, you can never regret and you can never say that you never tried.
