27 years old and living in LA NOT living the dream. Moved here to work as an actress. Screw being a celeb, I would settle for just getting paid to act. I have invested countless dollars, hours, and brain power trying to hedge my way into the business since I was not born to Hollywood royalty nor will I sleep my way to the top. After years, always working a second job to live while I am pursuing the dream, I am tired of it. No matter how much I love the art and not matter how good I have become at it; does a person really have to suffer from rejection, depression, and doubt to live their dreams?
I wish I was one of these people that all they cared about was getting married and having babies. Jeez, I have turned down man after man because they have come between me and what I dream about at night. Call me a cold-hearted woman, call me a failure, call me weak, call me whiny, or whatever you want. I am just here to say that no matter how big or small your dreams are, you are not in control of them. You can do all that you can to make them happen but there is no guarantee that you will wake up to see that dream come true.
I know at least for me, today is the day that I have given up hope to ever see mine come to fruition. |
End of the day, achieving your dreams is all about perseverance, sincerity and luck. But remember you need to live to achieve your dreams.
Dreams never die.
My advice? Get a role in some TV commercials, local plays or anything that is showcase for your talent. If you have enough talent, you will get noticed.
