Acting More than anything she wanted to go to acting school. Oh she knew exactly all the reasons why. She wanted to act like Brad Pitts and Brando. She wanted to be the new Julia Roberts and Bardot. Sometimes just thinking of it all made her break down and cry and for that she didn't understand why. For it would take months of study and years of unrest before she would come to realize that not all actors and actresses can pass the screen test. Jameslee September02,2001 |

Yeah so true James! But listen what is accomplished if one doesn't try to fulfill their dreams.....If it doesn't work out then move on to the next best thing. One thing is for sure is that another person can't make someone be what they're not! |

I believe we should always try to follow our dreams....or one day we will ask ourselves 'what if'? Good write. Enjoyed! ~Somewhere in my heart I'm always |

I agree with ET and Enchantress, follow those dreams and never wonder "what if". Enjoyed reading it Tracey If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Alas, only the top 2% ever make it near the top. The rest of us are happy only to have tried. We make our dreams real and reaching out for the brass ring is the most important thing. Your poem lets us see the mountain that must be climbed to get to this dream very well. Death comes not when we cease to breath, but when we cease to dream. |
