My parents tell me all the time that TV and movies aren't real life.
I go around the house quoting line after line. Word for word, I know every emotion.
I guess I have a hard time allowing myself to only have one destiny. One life path.
It's not that I want to be in the movies, or whatever...I want to be the people playing those roles. They change everything about them from one job to the next: their wardrobes, backgrounds, accent, body shape, and love interests. They are everything from queens to band groupies, to mothers trying to make it in a male dominated world.
The possibilities are infinite.
To be able to show such emotion simply through my words and actions...enough to make an entire sea of onlookers believe that I really do have magical powers or a split personality or maybe that I am a medical genius and the only doctor in the US able to cure an outbreak of bird flu.
It doesn't matter what it is exactly...I don't care what role would find its home in my hands, just as long as I was able to be someone else for a short second of my life.
The idea of possibilities is why.
So don't try to keep me from thinking outside the box or conforming to the norms.
My imagination is the closest I'll ever get to those possibilities and my mind has been working overtime ever since you told me it was out of reach.
