Education Never Stops

Hola, olé and all that good stuff!

I recently stumbled upon an old video that I had privately shared on YouTube, from one of our performances in class and decided to have a look, and a think.

The scene itself was pretty well executed and I could really see that I enjoyed acting in it. It's definitely one of my favorite plays "Angels in America" and the writing is so powerful that the words literally crawl from the page, begging to be acted.

But what really stood out to me is that we must never stop learning. As actors obviously, but as humans as well. If we stop to be curious about the world and stop wanting to learn more about all the wonderful things in it, we might as well just lie down and die.

If we believe that our brain is finite and we put limits on ourselves, we bind ourselves to being content with the life we have. And I'm not saying be miserable, I'm saying strive and be hungry. What you have is beautiful, a beautiful opportunity to learn more, to be curious and to live more.

My grandma's 97 years old. 97. Suck on that number for a little while. And what do I believe has kept her alive all these years? Her curiosity, obviously. She wants to know the future. And who doesn't?

I leave with the scene I previously mentioned. I hope you enjoy it!
