Confession: Today at work on a film set (background acting aka debt free film school) I played a cult member.
It was grandiose, and not like my own past in a high-control upbringing. But there were similarities, as cliche as they were. It fanned the flame inside me that’s been burning to bring realistic cult films to the masses.
Once home, I recieved a playful message asking how it feels being in a cult (they knew about my gig).
I started laughing cause they had no idea how precise and loaded their innocent question was, and I took a moment to decide whether I would answer sarcastically—to keep up the bit—or share something difficult
I decided to share a sentence or two. And spiraled a little in my head. It’s taken a long time to trust myself to wisely choose who I speak to and what I share, but lately I’ve been able to do it.
Not perfectly, but who cares. It’s all on a website anyway:
Sound of the day: hijaq. – keep going. https://youtu.be/afdS3FkGPYc?si=HZn8GoX6vqKl8gmE
