Anthony Speaks

“If you really want something, let it go, surrender, give it up because it is not about you. None of us have any power, we are powerless.”

These are words I heard Anthony Hopkins say to a group of aspiring actors & actresses this afternoon. Funny. I thought he would speak about working your butt off to get what you want -- to work your way up. I was struck by the idea that every human seems to have within them a spirit, or a divine indwelling, & that there seems to be an inner wisdom that we can learn from, even those in the Hollywood scene. I suppose this reveals how much I have written off Hollywood & called its people foolish.
