Honest

I'm pretty sure I live life rather honestly. That's what I thought at least until I started a new acting method of making my acting more honest. 

Being honest doesn't mean being honest only to others, but to yourself. Within yourself, you have feelings. How often do we not allow ourselves to truly feel? Do we let ourselves cry when we need to? 

Lets be real. We don't. We must be strong. We must be happy all the time. Crying is negative. Being angry is negative. They can be, when used in such a way.

At the end of the practice, I was asked to pray. Do you know how hard it is for me to pray out loud in front of people? I have realized the reason behind it is praying is talking to my Father in heaven. He knows my deepest everything. How could I be sure that those listening will respect and honor what I say?

It sounds ridiculous, but that's the way I am. I am challenging myself to e continuously honest. I challenge you.
