It's been a long, damn time.

Things are.....rocky.  I feel like a big ship on the ocean, that's found a place without any wind.  It's as though I'm the anxious captain, waiting for the wind to pick my sails back up.
Every, single time that it feels like the wind is about to blow.  It sputters out.

There's so much to tell. SERBIA,
Serbia could quite possibly have shifted my whole being.  Now that I've had some time to put this journey into perspective with my other journeys...
Such as Mask acting in the Netherlands, and Traveling through Hawaii, Mexico, and Britain. I've come to a few conclusions.  For the sake of brevity here comes a list......

1.  It is important that I go to Israel, no matter my dislike for the actions of the Israeli gov't or the Hamas.

2.  People in other countries are as smart as, or even smarter than you.  Just because someone is not speaking the same language does not mean that...
   a. They can't undestand english at all...
   b. They can't understand what your saying without ridiculous hand motions.
   c.  it would be polite to play a joke on them.

3.  Traveling with your lover will improve your relationship.
     'nuff said  :)

4. Destitution is not a sign of weakness.
  a. Gyspy's and their like have shown me that everywhere I've been.

5.  There is evil in this world that cannot be seen, it exists in minds, media, thought, and reasonings...Only warriors of Light can stand against this evil.  And that's what every artist is.  A warrior of light.

SERBIA taught me that...
Serbian crumble cheese is the most pungent, invasive and re-occurring horror of the Balkans.

I can dance. one two three one two three.

I can exceed my own expectations.

I can speak any language with enough practice.

my last year in Acting studio actually does make sense, in retrospect.

We are warriors of light.

A language dies every two weeks.

The Serbian People are beautiful, passionate, and often very angry.
   a. "stupid american stupid american stupid american!"

Gypsy musicians are better than Jimmy Hendrix.
  a.  Scadalia Street Musician:  "You know 'dis Jimmy Hendrix?"  We all nod yes..."Bah, Jimmy Hendrix!! I am world champion!"...musician than retrieves a plate off the table and performs a mind melting solo on his 5 string guitar using the plate as a slide.

High Fructose Corn Syrup is the semen of the White man on the face of America.
  a. dripping like some sad porn video cover.
  b.  there is also a red white and blue dildo in America's Ass.

The Human Body is an absolutely remarkable piece of machinery.

I LEARNED IN ENGLAND....

That Frankie Armstrong is a genius, and a very strong woman.  She was capable of taking a disadvantage like blindness and circumventing it to continue a fantastic career as a voice and speech teacher, and a deviser of the Archetypes system.

The Archetypes live within all of us, and I can summon them at command.  I can give them varying levels of control of both my body and mind, and thus my voice.

I can sing a pretty mean falsetto.
BAM!

The huntress journey taught me that the white hot anger of all women, when it is fanned into a flame, can neither be reasoned nor bargained with.  never underestimate a lady.

The benevolent leader showed me peace for the first time.

The child taught me how to meditate.  For nearly 20 minutes I attained a weird state of mind.  I was constantly observing, and totally engrossed with benign curiousness, the world world took on greater depth, and more vivid colors, everything slotted and made sense without having to be pondered over.  My eyes were open, but so was everything else.

World Folk Music should be studied preserved and enjoyed, there is boundless wisdom, great fun, and new understandings of world culture to be had.

Imagination is the most important part.

You absolutely do not have to work at the edge of exhaustion to produce perfect results.  When at total calm, and after warming up softly, otherwise wasted energy can be preserved for the craft.

Limiting parameters forces creativity.

Love manifests in all sorts of wonderful ways.

A castle is a magnificent place to live.

Someone has definitely placed their measured places before you.  No matter where you are.  With serenity, you can touch these people.

Ghosts are a state of fear in the mind of people who are not willing to come to terms with their own mortality.

Spirits are a state of awe in the mind of people who routinely question their mortality and state of being.

that's it for now.
