Where am I?

I just wrapped on a feature that I produced and acted in and feel like I just ran a marathon...but I wanted to share this one thought before I drop of exhaustion:  I am absolutely where I am supposed to be.

I am working with people that inspire me and aspire to be in greater places, tell more stories.  I am dog-tired and working with micro-budgets can be frustrating - but, making movies independently is also the most exhilarating experience anyone could ever wish for.

I feel like I just got home from Summer Camp, full of unforgettable memories, somewhat older and more experienced and with a bitter-sweet taste in my mouth, wishing so badly for it to be Summer again.

This project reflects that truth.  Right now, we are making plans, packing, getting ready for the school bus to take us to the wilderness.  WE are exactly where we are supposed to be:  nervous, excited, trying to fill our packs, take out the things we don't need and making sure to bring our favorite t-shirt.
