Food for thought

I once worked on an amateur theater production - but directed by an award winning director/playwright who normally works with the best in the business

He said the difference between an amateurs and a seasoned pro is not the quality of acting or singing.. .. it is that a pro can recover from a stumble.. either a fellow actor forgetting a line, a prop not working as it should have .. or something unexpected ... They can improvize their way out of situations and get back on script.. so that it is seamless for the audience. The amateur actor may just freeze.

While we are all not on stage and don't have hundreds of eye balls staring at us we can use some of that attitude.. RGBs passing should not distract us from our main goal... Seeing the orange asshole out of office. Senate Democrats may or may not succeed in blocking ..but we as voters we can't control it .. we can only control what we can..

Let's keep our heads down and keep ploughing through.
