a request for good vibes

[Rachelle]

hello all!

this might seem kind of weird but i thought i'd come on here anyway.

so, in about 18 hours from now, at 7pm central time, i will be performing a solo play and it's opening night (i've performed solo before, but never this play. but this could be the most difficult play to date, i think.)

anyhow. as the hours count down i'm starting to freak out and fear was taking over my brain... "what if this happens? what if i forget my lines? what if i make an ass of myself?"

but i'm trying to battle those feelings of fear with feelings of love. i'm trying to remind myself that i love performing and that i'm performing this play as an act of love towards people and my audience. there's a need for this play and it needs to be shared. etc.

i'd also really really appreciate some positive support and vibes sent my way.

last time i performed, about a 1.5 months ago, this man in the audience was sending me this crazy amount of positive energy and it was freaky because i could at times just feel it hit me in waves. it was amazing. and i tried opening my heart to it because it just affected me so much and really improved my emotional connection to the performance, etc.

so, i know it does make a difference. it's taking a lot for me to fight off the fear 'demons' and support and love and encouragment and courage sent my way certainly couldn't hurt.

so please please please i'd appreciate it if you could take a moment and think about me and my performance in about 18 hours from now.

thanks so much for taking the time to read this...

*Good Vibes!*

They're on the way! Good luck! I'm sure you're amazing at what you do, don't worry. Have fun!

I'm sending you all the good energy I can right now Rachelle! I'm absolutely positive that you will be radiant!!

I just wanted to thank those who put a little time aside to send me some good vibes. thank you!

we had some technical difficulties right before show time. aack!
and the show had some hiccups and I know the performance aspect can certainly be improved on my part. but it is what it is... and i'm confident it will only improve from here. (it was alright, i suppose. i just know that it could be so much more better than what it was.)

it's nice to get that first show out of the way. phew...

But either way - thanks again
