Many friends & colleagues of mine have tossed out the word "professional actress" my way, in relation to my career--and I really must say that I, in fact, am faking it. Well, not really.
Its just that in all of my life, I don't take it that seriously. I hold onto this world lightly and appreciate the blessings handed down to me, the opportunities to work as both a teacher & an actress, yes, even a writer, in short, the ability to create & tap into my artistic side with the luxury of having my bills paid.
So, I fake it. Well, not really. I think it comes down to the very idea that I know I am good & worth the time & the effort one puts into me. I will work hard because I am confident that I can do whatever task is handed to me, to the best of my abilities & be proud of my efforts & the outcome. (For I know all that has been given to me, the resources & opportunities, are provided for my learning, personal growth, & advancement of others. (And, yes, myself, TG!)
So, in a sense, its confidence, not professionalism. But, if you were wish be to call me "professional", I thank you with a humble heart & appreciate the thought.
