What’s up Facebook?! After a lovely two weeks at home with my family (minus 48 hours in Vegas) I’m heading back to Vancouver this evening and I’m back on set tomorrow. While I understand this page is free, I also realize that I set a particular expectation for content and for the regularity with which I post it. I also realize that as the co-founder of Nocking Point there are people expecting updates on what’s new, what’s next and what’s delayed / why it might be delayed. I FURTHER realize that there are contest winners associated with our most recent F-Cancer campaign who either haven’t received their item, or... don’t know they won something.
Most importantly... I realize that we built this page and this community in large part because I try and only post when I’m the best version of my myself. Well... recently... I haven’t felt like the best version of myself. Now... on the whole, I’m fine. I promise. I’m healthy, I’m happy and I’m pretty sure I could run a sub 5 second 40 yard dash with 10 minutes to warm up from a dead sleep at 36 years of age.
So why the absence? Simple. Sometimes life and work is a grind. Sometimes you pick at little scabs and make them worse than if you would’ve just left them alone. Sometimes your ego gets in the way. And then all of a sudden you get a moment to take a breath and you realize that maybe you haven’t disappointed your family or your friends or your co-workers... but if you’re being really honest, you’re disappointed in yourself.
I’m a particular person, which is why I can’t be mad when my daughter freaks out because I ask her to put on leggings before socks. (IT IS SOCKS FIRST, DAD!! IT IS SOCKS FIRST!) But by being a particular person - some might say, anal - please try and understand that I really do need everything in its place to feel settled. Everything has not been in its place. Thankfully, it feels like it’s starting to get back there.
This page grew from a genuine enthusiasm. I can’t fake it. I’m not that good an actor. (Insert joke - here - Charlie Hunnam fans.) Moreover, I don’t WANT to fake it.
So in that sense, I’m really happy that a scheduling miracle led to a mini-break in my filming schedule. And I’m even happier that I had the wherewithal to recognize that I needed a mini-break. This isn’t an “I’m back" announcement... it’s simply an explanation for why I wasn’t here.
Enjoy the rest of your day everybody.
