The timing on this, I fear, is awful, with what has been on the news. While most of Chicago will probably forget about this in due time, those of us who know will not forget the pain, will not forget these images that have struck fear into our hearts. While I have been reminded time and time again, not only how human it is to feel pain and fear, and how those emotions often make us what we are, we cannot let fear and pain rule us, or we lose that element entirely.
Weep for who we have lost. I ask not that you move on. I ask not that you forget; no, remember, and hold these memories close. But do not let the fear keep you from living your life. What is a life lived in fear, but a life lost?
So perhaps, perhaps, this is awful timing, or timing pulled together by strings we cannot fathom. Still, the timing is what it is, and nothing more.
Recently, the National Broadcasting Corporation bought the rights to a pitch I gave them. That, in and of itself, does not mean much, but I have recently been informed that the show will air. Auditions will be starting on Wednesday, and while I do not have complete voice in who is cast, I have some persuasion in the matter, and I would prefer, hope, to see others in my predicament, who have lost their identity, have a chance to participate, either as actors, or on set.
Unfortunately, the taping (and auditions) will be happening in New York. If you are interested in attending the auditions, I may be able to help you get to New York. Do not be shy-- if acting is your dream, you should seize this opportunity.

I'm afraid it seems I get busier and busier as time goes on, and further and further from you.
I cannot leave this town properly, and with it, you.
But, one must be who they are meant to be in the end, and must be able to move freely so they can attain their destiny.
I will visit.
I promise.
