& that was the line in the poem that meant So much to me.
In life you have to stand for something.
State your case.
Profess it to the WORLD.
This is how I see things.
Stand up.
& that is precisely what I am scared SH*TLESS about...
For the past 2.5 years I have dreamed of trying Stand-Up comedy.
I have been a comedian for over 10 years but in different genres. I've performed in short form improv, long form improv, sketch comedy, comedy writing etc.
I am a comedian.
But...
I was too scared to try Stand-Up.
Stage-no problem
Audience-no problem
Fellow Stand Ups-no problem
Rejection-no problem
Writing-no problem
Not funny-never gonna happen ;)
I wasn't afraid of Stand-Up the act of doing it.
I am afraid of falling head over heals in love again.
With a new art form.
You see when I fall in love...
I FALL in LOVE!!!
My life gets consumed with that one thing...
Until I FALL out of love with it.
& then that sucks more!
I didn't try Stand-Up bc of my fears of putting myself out there again.
Being scared of it not working out. Or working out.
Or me overworking it out.
Or me overworking it not working out.
I Thought & over thought too much what the process would FEEL like instead of just doing it.
I think it's bc I have a stinkn feeling I'm really gonna LOVE it!!!
Or HATE it?!?
Time to get Psyhco Killer Obsessed with something new...
But...
Hey, ya gotta stand for something, right? ;)
Today, what do you Stand For?
