I am 19. I've never acted in any productions, and I'm usually kind of afraid of public speaking. I think, though, that acting may be a way for me to break out of my phobia and become something of an artist as well. I wonder if I'm too old, though, to start acting. Thoughts?

first of all...19 isnt old....i started acting when i was 12 and now i am 16 and i actually never knew what i could do till i came into high school and this director, Mr. James Falkland, introduced me to theater and showed me whats hidden inside me and what i believe is that there is an actor hidden somewhere inside in every single person. join more clubs that do small skits and stuff like that...a small audience will start giving you the boost and then slowly by slowly you will be able to speak to a hundred thousand people without any fear. at meals with friends or family read out an article from a news paper...it doesnt have to be reallly long!!!!

best of luck and welcome to the world of acting!!!!

Acting is a great way to gain confidence. I was a very shy person up until I was 14 and was in a play. For some reason all my shyness just disappears when I'm onstage or acting for the camera. It's very liberating and the confidence finds its way into your daily life as well.

19 is definitely not too old! Look for an acting class, if you're in college, take one from the school drama department and see how you like it. If you're not in college, some schools will let you audit a course (sit in, sometimes participate, but not receive credit or a grade, and you don't have to pay for it).

Good luck!

Closure is the important thing phrase right here. If the husband and spouse love eachother, they need to comprehend you are not able to simply transfer on till u realize the corpse is truthfully useless and long gone perpetually. Knowing that there were miracles, and speakme to the man or woman in mattress on the sanatorium aid, additionally is helping supply closure to the spouse and children...they'll consider that they did all they might and all they desired to do earlier than the typical finish of existence. I could ought to say that leaving the loved ones cozy is intelligent, however how comfy are you relatively going to be when you've got melancholy and guilt from no longer being there up to you might were till the TOD got here???I'd be a multitude in my opinion. And cash would not subject to me a lot. Yes it could upload to the stree, but if you're depressed, you might supply 2 shits approximately whatever.
