Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?
Yeah, enough to know it’s not my jam
I’m not a performer in any sense of the word. Im terrible at pretending to be any other way than how I am. If only I had that gift…
What you see is what you get. Corresponding face to how I’m really feeling. It’s been a problem since birth.
If only I could ACT like all is fine. Boy do I wish I was a better performer!
I once saw a mom who angerly told off her children in front of a large group, while smiling the whole time. My own kids and I stared in awkward disbelief. How was she doing that?! Was anyone confused? I mean besides us? Her kids took it in stride and were properly quiet, seeming to understand the reprimand. Beautiful performance.
Sigh. If only I had a tiny bit of talent so I could suck it up and save face and not be sad we’ve run out of heavy cream…
Can’t
Im also fighting some weird illness, which is not contributing to my acting performance. Im really as sick as l seem, which is luckily not that bad. Trust me, I’m not dramatic, but I wish I felt a whole lot better. I’m taking myself out to buy cream and some cold/flu medicine.
The morning has not gotten off to a stellar start, here’s hoping for a better finish.
always a challenge….but, once you start it get’s easier. I used to hate school concerts, well then, I started playing guitar and instead with a school group, it was just me …eeeeeeeee
now well, I talk to run groups…which is scrary until I started…now I can do a 3 hour talk on shoes and have to be told to stop………and having raised 2 autistic kids, up, performing in public was just what it was
