Improv

The Places ‘Yes And’ Will Take You

May 20, 2018 admin 0Comment

When I first started doing improv I had no idea what kind of journey it would take me on. All I knew in those early days was that the laughter was wonderful. I had been going through a rough time and the levity helped so much.

As the months and years went on I kept exploring all the different ways I could keep learning and growing through improv. Little did I know I’d end up on a trip in Europe doing improv with friends and meeting new people.

I wrote the post below for my facebook page while riding from Belfast to the first ever Improv Utopia in Newgrange. I’d give anything to go back to that moment in the car and freeze time for a short while:

Here’s a mediocre flyer like thing. I’m not a graphic designer. I created this with an app in the car while driving through Belfast. Very unfancy.

Just having a moment thinking about where I am and how funny the things you never expect to happen in life are the most beautiful.
There have been many moments I felt I was going in circles. But every now and then everything makes perfect sense.

I am where I’m supposed to be. And this path has been so imperfect. And it will continue to be. And that’s okay.

Somewhere in all this I seem to have an undying optimism. And wonderful humans that have been there along the way. I’m never alone as I carry them with me. I am here because of all of it. Every single thing. Every moment. Every mistake. All of it.

I am full. (Please remind me of this post when I’m depressed again in 2 weeks.)
