If you look close enough at this picture, it looks like the sun has eyelashes. This was taken on Confederate Avenue in Gettysburg, looking across toward Little Round Top! But there is no comparison than actually seeing it in person, with all of that fog and how the sun bounces off of it! Gettysburg truly … More THE SOLDIERS VIEW!
Nope! Not the best pic. But working out isn’t supposed to be a beauty contest. Adding weights to my ankles is tough and it creates a lot more sweat. But, I am getting stronger because of it. There are times in regard to this film that there are things, I just don’t want to do. … More SMILE MORE!
This is me after doing a complete run through of an upcoming skating test. I thought I was going to pass out. Normally, each piece of the test is done with breaks after I practice them. But, when all of the pieces are put together, there are no breaks in between. I lack stamina. Here … More PREMIERE OF OUR DREAMS!
Ben Franklin once stated: “Lost time can never be found again.” Over the last nine years, since the conception of Summer Ray, I had made plenty of mistakes. There were times even when there were no mistakes and progress just seemed to go at a snails pace. Things were never perfect. But more often than … More IT’S THE JOURNEY!
When I look out over the ocean, my thoughts are on how great Thou art! Words simply cannot describe just how great, great is! God is magnificent. But He is also loving-kindness. Abraham must have understood this. The Bible says, “He considered not his own body!” Think about it. The guy was 99 years old … More CONSIDER HIM!
If there is one place on planet earth that I am absolutely in love with, it is New York City. It is why I included it in my Summer Ray book series and now the films. I simply cannot wait to be able to film there. New York City makes me feel alive in … More LEAVE THE 99!
There are a few words (among other things) that I would like to talk about. The first word is “impatience.” But let’s talk more about what impatience isn’t…it isn’t patient. It doesn’t have “the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset.” When people get impatient they become restless … More TILL YOU FIND YOUR DREAM!
While I was at Bethany Beach, I sat down to watch the “Bee Movie” with my beautiful GRAND-daughter. Something stuck with me enough to want to come home to blog about it. Bees are not supposed to fly. But they fly anyway. Well if a bee can fly, then I can become a filmmaker. Writing … More DOING ANYWAY!
I remember my reaction to seeing this picture with the sunrays shining on our banner. God was approving of our film and He was letting me know. It was a glorious day! We didn’t always have days like the picture above. There were times of hard physical, mental and emotional work. But, work on this project … More THE PROMISE LAND!
As I get ready to leave for the beach for a week, I have packed lots of books. I will STILL be studying film funding even on the beach. Hopefully while there, I will get a clear mind and come back with lots of new ideas. I know it have to stay on track. … More HALF THE BATTLE!
