Day 15,770 of the Journey...
Getting to the Good Part...
Okay ..."so how many licks does it take to get to the center of a ?"...I am sure I am dating myself by breaking out the Tootsie Roll Pop Owl...smile if you remember these commercials. Smile wider if you ever counted how many licks it took you to get to the good part...the center.
Everyday I awake I am looking to get to the good part (that bubble gum center :) or win the "Lotto" :). Either way the end of the journey is the destination. Inside destination is destined and destiny.
What is my destiny ? What am I destined to do? I just want to get there...because if I get "there" then I am not "here". In my head I just hear "Bill" saying "Die!...I might die in committee !". I believe most of us fear dying in committee...dying while "in progress".
There is physical death and then there is "becoming stuck" aka "my dreams didn't come true" aka "I didn't reach my goals" aka "I coulda been a contender" (in my Marlon Brando voice).
Don't misunderstand me I have heard more than a few times "it's about the journey...not the destination". Well cute, but my feet are tired. Where and what is the last stop of this journey? The frustrating thing is that part of the "journey" is learning and mastering that it is about the JOURNEY.
By the way "frustrating" is an understatement for what learning "that part" is. If you happen to have been out fishing with me when God gave out patience then you know...learning "that part" is actually excruciating. So I wake up everyday trying not to fight or flight, but to float.
While on the journey this is my "float face" complements of Instagram.
Getting to the good part is what it is...a journey. By good part I refer to living our best life by being our best us (that is "best you" and "best me")...everyday. In my head I hear "Everyday ? Are You Kidding?"
What is being our best us ? ...Well that is the Billion Dollar question.
Here's hoping for a down payment on a cool billion...
We are to look in the mirror everyday and know that every dream that is connected to making the world better through our God (Creator and or Universe) given talents some known and others yet to be discovered gets us to the Good Part.
Here are a couple of folks that I journey with...thanks Instagram for the cool effects.
We must remember the Good Part is on the inside and even though it manifests in all types of cuteness and swagger on the outside...the Good Part remains on the inside of all of us...
To the winner may indeed go the spoils...but the race has never been given to the swift nor to the strong but to the ones that endureth to the end..."the journey" aka "the race" is the Good Part.
On Friday I forwarded sizzle reels and treatments (on new projects) in the hope of traction with potential buyers. Today I met with a new collaborator and followed up with a production partner and coalesced a treatment via email with another production partner...with each new day I am on the journey...making my way to the Good Part.

Love Letter Vol 1
I wrote a love letter...
The question was asked...
What would I do with you for 7 days?
Well...on another planet in that other lifetime the one where my mother is still with me and I am a Pulitzer prize winning author and playwright I would love you and by now have given you at most 3 babies no less than 2 and I would gladly and proudly rush home to you everyday and cook your food and make the bed we slept on the night before and step out to the world everyday believing I did something special when I married you and that I could change the world and transform lives through my writing not just because GOD told me so but because you were present to look in my eyes and tell me you loved me everyday...
Lawfully and lovingly yours

Getting to the Core...
Friday March 9th, 2012
It's been 15 days...
Day 15,765 of the Journey... to the Center...
Since Thursday February 23rd when we last spoke...I have found myself working to slow down and become centered and then remain centered. I am looking to get to the core. I have been on a journey to the center of my earth.
*If God lives in you, then you have the obligation to walk the earth as a God*
Dr. John Henrik Clarke
I've been taking yoga more and just remembering to breathe and sit long enough to finish one thing at a time. When we breathe we can connect to God...right then. I have therefore been breathing, being still and knowing. There is a journey to being still.
I count these revelations as the rewards for searching for the center. Psalm 46:5-10 assures us that...
"(5) God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day. ...(9) He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. (10) He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; (11) The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress."
On the beginning of the journey to my center, which for the umpteenth time commenced the day of our beloved Whitney's funeral when Tyler Perry spoke so engagingly of a lunch he had with her. He shared with us that they talked of one of Paul's many letters to the Romans.
In Romans chapter 8 Paul encourages the people of that time to remember so many powerful things. The very essence of getting to the center of it all he explains is seeking after the fruits of the spirit the first of these according to Galations 5:22 is Love... At Verse 38 Paul says...
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord"
We all take LOVE pretty seriously. I do. What Psalm 46 and Romans 8 tells me is that it is God's Love that is at my center. I am therefore not only obligated to remember this, but to live for the one who created me, loves me best and loves me most !
God's Love is at my core...it is the center of my earth...
