Hello once again everyone
It's been awhile since I've written and I'm still not sure if I will ever be able to fully do my Roles blog post in one piece so I may just post it up eventually.
I am writing this for mainly something to do but also its my birthday week and so so so much has happened that its astounded me.
First of all - I've managed to sort out majority of my room which is just one of those little things that you always need to do but never get round to doing so I feel a little accomplished in that.
Secondly - A new academy/acting opportunity has arisen once again showing me that I am an immensely lucky bugger , Though I do always believe these things happen for a reason and while I believe this is to help further down my acting/ career skills there may be another reason behind this......
Thirdly - I feel I have found someone to open myself too, whether this be a new best friend or possibly more I have no idea but strangely , after a month and half of being single I did start liking girls again and even had a few offers of some ( I know weird right XD) but I turned them all away for one reason or another because I just didn't..... feel that spark, that interest, that thing that says lets give it a go no matter how it happens. Me and this person have apparently come from similar history and want to just see how it goes but no matter how this ends, it will remain with me forever.
If anything this week has given me , so much, a sense of accomplishment , a sense of adventure again and definitely a sense that my heart can carry on beating because some people are worth meeting and some people are worth risking it for.....
This probably seems like complete gibberish or nonsense to some people but let me try and summarise it for everyone.
When life knock you down, no matter how hard, get back up, you may not feel the same as you did before but sooner or later you will stand once again with a bigger stride/step and you will find these little things in life worth taking a fall for.
hope this helps, I know I like it :')
peace and love your man in the hat

Inspired by Films - True Lessons
Hey again friends, family and anyone else reading this particular blog
once again thank you for gracing me with your presence its always appreciated and I am literally writing this after watching the last of my three must see films ( the last one being I Am Legend)
I am writing this while still working on my other post of my roles in life and feel that I have to post it and then do a second one otherwise its gonna be a huge huge read, suggestion on postcard and any other messaging way is grateful but let me get to core of why I am writing this.
I am writing this because after Fight Club and Top Gun, I remember hearing via others or my own study that there are couple of films needed to be watched because they are so awesome/cool, so emotional , so moving and life changing that they needed to be watched and here are three of those films and I feel these are beliefs/lessons every one can take something away with them to add into your own lives.
1. Crazy, Stupid, Love. - The Lesson of Fighting For What You Love
Right the first film is latest one out called Crazy, Stupid, Love. And without any shame I was bloody close to tears at points of this film. The main character ( Steve Carell) starts off with having to re-enter the dating world after his wife (soul mate) wants a divorce from him because she doesn't feel a connection any more and has already slept with someone else, enter Ryan Goshling playing jacob palmer ( ryan gosling in this role is brilliant and someone I'd love to be) he takes Cal ( Steve Carells character) and turns him into his best possible self, great clothes, great attitude and general best he can possibly be just like himself. But both of them end up in predicament they never imagined Steve wanting to re-connect with his soul mate even after this new transformation and Jacob actually finding a girl he wants to be with. After a long of funny situations and dramatic scenes/speeches it boils down to Cal stopping his son's speech and saying that fighting for your soul mate / love is something you can never give up on , its something worth fighting for.
I could go into strenuous detail about this but mainly comes down to this
Fight for what you love - No matter what it is!
It could be a person, a dream you have, a belief you hold or even your opinion. It may be wrong on someones level or it could be a up hill battle sometimes but fight for it, if you believe it in your heart that its worth fighting for it , your love is always worth fighting for .
2. 300 - The Lesson of Little Things Make a Big Difference
Okay I shall briefly summarise this film its about Leorniardis ( spelt badly sorry) not Spartacus which even I fell into believe it was with all the spartan references . He is KIng of Sparta and leads a group of only 300 men into battle against persian army of a million soldiers. Using Tactics and Strategy he wins battle after battle against the supposable invincible army, sadly at the end even he and his men lose after a betrayal and refuse to retreat because of their spartan law dying in honour and glory and creating a story of legend which is carried back by one solider , who then raises a bigger army of the same breed of men led by Leornidas to push back and defeat the persian army and their god king.
The lesson or should I say lessons I got from this film where :
1. One Man can make a difference
2. The smallest things can make a big impact
Here is a film which embodies how one man can make an impact on so many people and change so many things using what he learns and putting it into practice , he may not be a god but he was a leader, a king, a tactician and a friend. He and His three hundred man stood against all odds and creating a legend that told that a small group chose to stand against all odds for their beliefs , for their honour and glory , for their homeland because of one man and made such an impact against a huge army before being felled.
We all can make a difference, we may be one person or a group of people but we can all make an impact if we choose to take that option and stand against what may seem impossible odds but we can make a impact, it may cause some things to end but in the process it can easily create something even bigger and better before :')
3. I Am Legend - The Lesson of Legacy/Legends aka One Man making a difference on the world
This film, I don't feel I have done any of these film justice watch them please and especially this one I feel I can't really summarise it or tell you about it..... basically one man does all he can to change the world and then in moment of realisation sacrifices himself to pass his knowledge and hope on to make a difference in the world.
This film and lesson I feel again is such an important one and such a basic one, here is one guy facing odds and doing all he can with time he has to build and work and create something to help fix or change the world or at least his world to help others.
One Man trying to change the world. and he does he may have died in the end but he created something and passed it on because he done all he can, he worked, he cried , he toiled and he sweated but he change the world, he became a legend and passed on his legacy to create a better world.
Those are three films I say and feel people need to watch to get the full impact, I hope I have done some justice to these films and these lessons for people.
These are such simple things but are hard to do or to add into peoples lives because adaption or routine breaking is hard but if you can do it...... you can change so much, its what I am trying to do at the moment and I feel I am making so much change and not seeing progress but what I am trying to change takes time and though it's not much improvement it still progress
I hope you take these lesson and advice on board and begin to change things in your life and improve your world because you may be one person reading this blog , but one person .......can change the world
much love and respect
