On becoming.

Once upon a time, I was unhappy. But pretended to be happy. Like a good actor. I lived the role. And became so proficient at it, that I actually became happy. Really, It was no longer pretend. I recommend that others try it. Tell yourselves, that you will become the best actor in the world. Playing the role of the person you want to be. To the utmost. Playing it so well. That you are no longer acting. You have become. –Jim Broede
