Life
This live stage show requires born actors
There can be no rehearsals
No extra “takes”
Mistakes cannot be corrected
It’s all part of the act
Some play the leading roles
Some just sit in a dark corner
Afraid to act, afraid to live
Some create happiness and laughter
Some sorrow and tears
Old actors exit
New ones enter
The show goes on regardless
Some can see beyond the stage
Some cannot
The Audience Watches….
