I don't know if I want to do this forever,
areas collective consciousness gets people
I don't know. I think there's some kind of collective consciousness that gets out there and people kind of delve into the same areas at the same time.
glad learned
I learned a lot. I'm glad that I did it.
character journey focus
I've never really been a fan of violence. I'm more into the characters and their journey and those kinds of movies don't really allow for that. It's a different focus.
thinking actors exciting
I think it's exciting to see actors do new things.
believe oneness way
I really believe in a oneness. So if I'm looking at somebody else, it's not in a narcissistic way, but you're kind of seeing yourself.
What I do affects others; what others do affects me.

As far as kids go, at an early age they have to develop a sense of individuality. It's just something that everyone goes through. But I think the older I get, the more I appreciate the fact that we really are just so connected.
people world littles
It's strange, because it seems that society is kind of promoting or nurturing this kind of ostracized existence. People are kind of very much in their own little worlds.
believe thinking ideas
I think as with everything in life you've got to follow your gut. If you believe it wholeheartedly, then it's not going to feel like you're kind of pasting on an idea.

I've never really been a fan of violence.
moving character play
I personally kind of yearn to play characters who are complex and who strike a truthful chord in me and who are challenged in some way and, I guess, who kind of move through those challenges.
married being-married felt
I like being married, but it was never something I felt I had to do.
acting age passionate
I kind of realized I could sing, so I played around with that for a while. And that led me to acting in itself, which I came more passionate about by the age of 15.
