Kindness - Simple but so True

Most of us don't know the name of Rowan Le Compte, an amazing artist.  His work in stain glass is truly amazing at the American Cathedral.  I don't think I can do just to this interview in  my own words so I hope you will go and listen to it.

Please listen to the end of the interview because his recollection of a small girl in the church.  It truly t...Read more

New Friends from the LA Party come visit me on AnD

New Friends from the LA Party come visit me on AnD

Thank you AnD for arranging a great get together in Los Angeles.  I wasn’t able to meet everyone there but had great conversations with the people I did meet.  It was such a kick to meet people I had chatted with on AnD. Sommer, Melly, Warren.  Of course it was fabulous to see Terence again, having worked with him in Hong Kong.  And Grace a big thank you for all your hard work. 

 I also met some great new people.  Unfortunately I didn’t get ...Read more

We can rise above the small things.

Dear Friends at AnD.

I was so proud today watching the changing of the guard in my country.  I know it is easy to criticize.  We all do it and so often.   But I looked at almost 2 million people shoved together so close and yet there were no arrests, no incidents.  So it can be done.  People can live with each other in harmony.   It was more important to share hope and an event that meant so much to so many of us than to let small problems get in the way. 

I only wish we could all do this more of the time....Read more

Great Hotel in Hong Kong

        Great Hotel in  Hong Kong

  I have been asked a lot about where I stayed when I went to Hong Kong a few months ago.  Hong Kong, like New York City, can be a challenge so  I want to share with you a wonderful choice for a hotel in Hong Kong.   

As you know it is always easy to find an expensive great hotel in most cities but looking for a mid-priced hotel that gives you your money’s worth  is not always as easy to find.   Well I was so fortunate to find a wonderful hotel in the Kowloon area of Hong Kong.

And everyone else too!

I just imported an entry from my blog, Answers4Actors.   As I rereadit I realized that I wanted to wish everyone at Alivenotdead  Happy New Year as well.  

It feel hopeful here where I am and I hope it does where ever you are too.

Almost everyone I know has had to face a different challenge this year.  Something they had never had to face before but what I have seen in everyone including myself that we are stronger than we think.   Glad to see that!

Bless you all and I look forward to seeing all of you again  s...Read more
