your life is like your personal movie or TV show --- you are the main actor/actress and you may have a romantic interest, a lovable sidekick, a supportive best friend or family member, a reliable inner circle or maybe even a resident villain or two. you also have people who are one-time or recurring guest stars (some wanted, some not-so-wanted), and a lot of extras along the way.
for most of my life, i was wrapped up in scoping out the perfect leading man, establishing the "right" inner circle, laughing with the sidekicks, and trying to be a worthy bida of my personal movie.
it took me a while to realize that i am also a one-time/recurring guest star, a potential leading lady, and of course, an extra in countless other "movies".
now, i don't just want to be the perfect "protagonist" of my personal movie. i want to be a memorable and worthy potential leading lady, recurring/one-time guest, and inner circle member in someone else's chick flick/soap opera/documentary/insert-your-preferred-genre-here. who knows, i might start out as an "extra" or occasional guest in someone else's movie and we eventually become a permanent fixture in each other's lives... =)
here's to hoping our personal movies/TV shows will have the happy endings that we wish for! =)
