In our obsessive wish to arrive, we often forget the most important thing, which is the journey.

I love the journey! even when I hate it! because i know my journey is mine and it is so unique…is like when you write your resume and you think “wow…I have done all this?” jajajaja…
When a direct a play in communities, I enjoy the process…I enjoy seeing the person that arrived the first day and the one that leaves on the last show…I grow with them…because I am them…

The wish of the journey is making us belive in the truth and to find it. Love to all humans and mother earth

Sometimes we pay attention so much to the journey, we bypassed our destination. That makes me wonder if I had the right destination in view. I don’t like traveling in circles. Gotta find the lesson to move on to the next.

I am on the way,so I cant forget the journey…And in real life,if I walk on a road,near mountains,I like to look around,not to make haste toward the final destination.

The outsiders look at the outcome, the destination. They never imagine the effort, the battles, the sleepless nights, the tears.. They value the joy and happiness that the end of the path has offered us.
It is the ‘obsessive wish,devotion, love and passion’ that has made the dream become true. Real artists know the meaning of … living life to its full extent and transform it into …Gold. The art of Alchemy! Thank you, Paulo Coelho, for ..teaching us the Art of LOVE.
LOVE,
Thelma
