"Life Without A Fork": Flying Without A Net, On God's Wings!

Tweet

"LIFE WITHOUT A FORK," DOCUMENTARY FEATURE: FLYING WITHOUT A NET, ON GOD'S WINGS"

It's 2014 and, having started in 2009, producing this film has been a journey and then some! I am ill with the condition, #IdiopathicAngioedema, so it remains extremely challenging for me to forge on with taking this project to the finish line. I have been offered help, countless times and sometimes, it really gets me down when the follow-through doesn't actually come. Oft times, it gets me to the point that I just want to say, with all the pleasantries I can muster, "no, thank you."

Doors opening and closing as quickly as the turn-style types to be found in mid-town Manhattan's office buildings, I continue to persevere as, finally, I am near completion! This project, while certain to impact audiences around the globe with its rich, vivid, and most certainly, shocking images, along with its bigger than life storyline, will also serve as advocacy to help save lives, yes, mine included, thank you very much! :), by getting some, 'right attention,' around #ChronicAngioedema. Absolutely a project that is near and dear to my heart, I work hard to find cause and cure for this life-threatening disease.

For my reward, God has not only been steadfast in his willingness to help me make this happen, he continues to remind me that, as per the great words shared by my mom, the late Katie Tucker, "every man is a golden link in the chain of my good." And, although I may be flying without a net, it is through the endless source of support I receive from others, like you, who are His angels and are amongst my family, friends, fellow-sufferers, fans, celebrity associates, and overall well-wishers, I fly forever on God's wings.

Living Healthful One Day At A Time: Eat Raw Foods 02

Tweet

Eating raw foods is an excellent way of maintaing a healthful diet. They are better for the body than are cooked foods as, eating uncooked, unprocessed foods means that you are eating foods in their native form that have not lost any of their nutritional benefits. Although this can be a pricey venture, there has been many a day that my body has thanked me for avoiding refined and cooked foods--I even use unrefined oils (coconut and flax) in my diet--and it's absolutely amazing what it does for my hair, skin, weight maintenance, and overall health!

And truthfully, there are some really yummy recipes, pre-prepared, and made to order raw foods in today's modern society, by knowledgable, health conscious people--I urge you to give a try.

Want to become an actor?

Move to Hollywood! You won't get the opportunities nor immediate acceptance as an actor anyplace else in the world. Research online for monologues and scripts to become familiar with and be able to recite at an audition. Monologues: 1 for comedy, and 1 for drama: http://www.actorpoint.com/monologue.html

Get used to watching television and films differently--look for the actors' body language, emotional reach, eye contact and expressions, and mouth movement. Let the best of them guide you--know who the best of them are! Charlie Sheen is television's highest paid actor. Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Matt Daemon, Angelina Jolie, Cate Blanchett, Meryl Streep, Will Smith, Kate Winslet, Tom Hanks, etc.--these are all A+ actors in the Hollywood film set!

And Will Smith says it best here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkziAM_ZyDM. Very impacting and motivating, this man, this video truly keeps me inspired--a powerful how to on getting out of your own way and becoming a success.

Let me know if you have any specific questions, and if there is anything else I can think of I will post an update. The one biggest thing is that you CLAIM IT NOW--you ARE an actor, beginning or otherwise, so get comfortable with telling this to people. :)
