Kelly took me to see Cirque Du Soleil's Iris for my birthday. If you're in LA and you get a chance to see it, it's amazing. As I looked up in the air, I kept thinking how truly fantastic it all was. If you've ever seen a Cirque show before, there are dozens of things going on at once.. it makes your head spin with the trapeze artists, contortionists, acrobats, clowns, and entertainers - it seems crazy, but I think that's why I was so drawn to it. Amazing and impressive, I realized I must have a bit of the "Cirque" within me. I think we all do.
We can all relate, our lives feel like a circus from time to time. We juggle jobs, families, responsibilities, commitments.. or our own choices and needs. We perform incredible feats to get it all done. I don't know about you, but my life always seems like a "circus" and I love it that way. If I'm not juggling dozens of things at once, I'm not really happy. Personally, I think it's a bit an ADD issue, but also life is just too exciting and amazing not to go for it all. There is something invigorating about following your passions, no matter how many you have. Living life energized by what you do, even if it seems crazy or too much to other people. Right now, we're starting 2 companies, I'm writing and publishing my first book and starting the second. I'm back on the running circuit, competing in 1/2 marathons.. oh and ... all while we're planning a wedding and our future family. Yes, it's all hectic, and exciting, exhilarating, risky, very entertaining, but mostly.. the best time of my life! I'm like the girls flying through the air, swinging and spinning on the trapeze.. IT's a MAGICAL ride and I love it.
- Cheers to all the trapeze artists, contortionists, acrobats, clowns, and entertainers, you are amazing and inspiring for much more than your show.
