Went to the Church Hill Theatre tonight to see Brian Whitaker (and others I know) in the final performance of Hello Dolly. Excellent community theatre. All actors contributed, and some were quite good. Throughout most of the first half, however, I would gaze back and forth between the stage and the ("orchestra") pit and silently ask "What have I gotten myself into?". The same "technique" used to quiet myself when performing; to escape self-focus and connect (w/God) beyond myself, became my path of release. Once loosed beyond self, I am taken to that quieter place, where the still small voice can be heard. Touching God, in a moment, brings comfort to the (called) path.
