If life was like Peter Pan everybody would have a happy place. As I sit and think about the things that make me happy there is one certain thing that I have decided is my happy place.
I am taking a theater class at Red Rocks and through that class I have discovered exactly where my happy place is. I love to act. When I act I get to become someone else. All of my thoughts and purposes change. Who I am at that moment doesn't matter. My whole life is irrelevant because I am not me. I can forget about all of my worries and issues and just pretend they don't exist for a while. It's a wonderful escape.
I can't think of anything else that makes me feel the same way. I always want to have this in my life. To be a paid actor would be great but even if that never happens I'm always going to act.
Another great thing about that class is the people who are also involved in it. I really get the feeling that I can be myself and even act like someone else in front of them without judgment. Sure, a little constructive criticism is present but nobody is ever degraded. Not in that class.
This is defiantly my happy place.
