Dear Actor,
Dear Artist,
Dear Creative,
There is so much going on in our world at the moment…
And it can be…
And is…
Very overwhelming…
It can even be described as disorienting…
And disheartening…
But it is so important for us…
During these trying times…
To remember who we are…
As artists…
We have always been confronted with difficult times…
Yet, somehow…
Someway…
We always seem to make it through…
We have that super stamina…
We have that creative courage…
We have that ferocious fight…
We have that dedicated drive…
We have that incredible investment…
We have that powerful passion…
And we have that absolute ability…
To hold on…
To adjust…
And persevere…
And most of all…
And most importantly…
We have our dreams!
So I encourage you…
To remember…
Or Re-Mind yourself of this:
No one…
No-thing…
And no external circumstance…
Should ever be given the power…
To break down your artistic love…
And passion…
For what you were meant to do…
Always allow the artist that you are…
To live in…
And flow through you…
There is not a person powerful enough…
Nor is there an organization strong enough…
Or a circumstance big enough…
To make its way…
Into your unbreakable spirit…
And dismantle who you are.
You are an artist….
Plain and simple….
You are an actor….
Plain and simple…
You are a creative…
Plain and simple…
Despite what you may be doing at this very moment…
Despite if you are…
Or are not…
Or are not able…
To do what you love at this very moment…
It is still who you are…
It is still in you…
It is not going away…
It will not be lost…
It is in your dna…
It is in your heart…
It is in your spirit…
It is in your soul…
It is in your calling…
The most worthwhile success an artist can ever experience…
Will come from the trustworthy ally within…
Which always knows…
Who you are…
What you are…
What you do…
What you want to do…
What you were meant to do…
And what you WILL do…
Never ever let anyone…
Or anything…
Steal/Rob/Take that away!
So keep day dreaming…
Keep painting…
Keep drawing…
Keep playing…
Keep making music…
Keep singing…
Keep dancing…
Keep acting…
Keep creating!
Keep living as the artist that you are!
No matter what life throws at you (us)…
Always always find it in you…
To keep getting up!!!
You will be doing what you love soon enough!
The world is so thankful for artists like you…
Who have given…
And contributed so much to humanity!
On behalf of all of us at MC² Actors Studio…
We wish you and your loved ones…
A very Happy Thanksgiving!
We are thankful for you!
Much Love,
