Doing Time in Los Angeles

I grew up never having a real dream of my own. I was destined to by the mogul of Millard Martin and Son Plumbing services or... an ice cream truck driver. Both are admirable professions, but neither are awe inspiring avenues for high powered success. Joelene nudged me into teaching, and I am glad. Then came Trevor. Growing up in little BG is great, but seeing the world is amazing. Trevor has a dream and a passion; and from a father's perspective, he is good at acting and singing. He is in Hollywood at least giving it a chance, and for the vast majority of people we have encountered, they feel he is good at it as well. Just because we are here does not mean he is in or even that he can get a shot at any roles. There hasn't been a lot of activity; this leads to frustration on Joelene and I. Joelene and I want something to happen now and we want Hollywood to stop and say Trevor here is your chance. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that... The most amazing part of all this is that Trevor consistently keeps his head up and never focuses on what doesn't go right, but what does go right. I played golf in the mountains today at a course above Burbank, it was beautiful and using tee discount.com, it only cost $21. I played with 2 guys who are screen writers and have a deal working with cbs for a series like the Mentalist; they both said that what we were doing with Trevor was the right way to do things. They said that our manager was right and that Abrams Artist was a great agency and some people spend 20 years in the business before they have a situation like Trevor has right now. This was encouraging. It is a long road, but it leads somewhere... My favorite quote of all times is from the great Yogi Berra, "When You Come To A Fork In The Road, Take It..."
