Never let anyone bring you down, Allison! You’re an awesome woman who has great insights and wisdom beyond your years. Anyone would be honored to call you “friend” or “wife”!!

I definitely agree with Neil!

The whole point of life, I think, is to have fun and be satisfied at whatever you’re doing!

You’re as awesome as ever don’t let anyone tell ya otherwise

Yes, you are right. Life is beautiful, a gift and so many other things. Unfortunately, some will disagree mostly because of difficult circumstances and/or harsh backgrounds.

I look to the day when everyone agrees life is beautiful, and hopefully appreciates it as much as you do.

I’m glad you had such a wonderful evening.

You are right, life is incredibly beautiful, surprising and enchanting, with its ups and downs.

I’m in the process of rebuilding my life, I’m reinventing myself with newfound positivity, self-confidence, happiness and inner peace. I’m on a beautiful journey.:-)

Please, continue to live joyfully and do all the things that you like to do, stay true to yourself, don’t do anything you don’t feel good about and don’t give up on your dreams.
I’m sure that your positive attitude and zest for life will be inspiring for many people.

Have a joyful weekend.

Are you intimidated when you are around other directors since you know that your own directing time is coming up? Just curious wonderings…

I love the discussions you’re carrying on here, they’re very mind opening. I just don’t really participate in them because some of your topics surprisingly make me draw blanks. Or they make me think so much into it I just don’t know exactly what to reply or how to phrase my own opinions. I’m telling you= Mind Boggling!

allison, im glad that you are happy. i am very happy to. im in a happy marriage, and i have one child. im glad that directing will make you happy, you deserve it!

Slainte, Ms. Mack.

You’re a rare person and don’t you ever forget it.

Ditto! Here, here! Alli-Mack.
Life is a beautiful thang, ment to be explored, enjoyed, cultivated, and shared with others in the only way that you/we individuals know how…so live it up and live it to the fullness that it was ment to be lived. To not do so, is to rob yourself and others of a truly divine experience.
Remember, nothing comes to sleepers and dreamers, but a dream.

Allison agree with you!
life is wonderful, it is a pity q not all people can see … most take long to realize how much life, the friends are wonderful!
you are a special person … your friend is lucky to have your friendship!
same as you said, I hope you continue counting many jokes, and is being spectacular artist!

Love you!

Yes devil take it easier to live, love lives, to not think about tomorrow and all we go to drink wine!!! And not only!!!

I am wondering if, at this moment, you are happy that your chance to direct was delayed a year to give you this time to think about it and study?

As to the subject of this blog and to diverisity and personal perspectives, I’ll just say something old that I personally agree with: Beauty is in the eye of the bee holder. … And, if you’ve ever held a bee, you know how painful that can be.

I have had a few tragedies happen in my life, but when I look into the beautiful eyes of my six-year old daughter I realize that each day I am alive makes it all worth it!

You’re all right. Life is beautiful, sometimes scary, sad or even devastating, but still beautiful!

On the subject of the Human Race being a divine species with infinite potential and never ending surprise, I’m not sure if any of you have managed to check out the news over the last few days, but there was one particular story that jumped out at me!

On Thursday, in the Bronx section of New York, an off duty, pregnant police officer was tragically hit by a bus, and pinned underneath. What caught my attention was the fact that within seconds of this happening, 30 or more complete strangers came together, managed to co-ordinate their efforts, and lift the entire bus long enough for the emergency services to get the woman out.

These people didn’t know her, they didn’t even know each other, yet they knew that only if they worked as a team would this woman have any chance of surviving.

Sadly she later died, but thanks to the efforts of these anonymous heroes, and her shear determination, she managed to give birth to her Son, before she this happened. I’m not ashamed to say that this story brought a tear to my eye.

I know this event doesn’t exactly have a happy ending, but I think it shows just what miracles the Human race could achieve, if only we put aside our petty differences and worked together!

P.S. Allison, I’m sure you will be an amazing Director. You already have one advantage; you are a great actor who knows what you expect from yourself.

I’m sure that you’re co-workers respect you as much as we do and as a result will work as hard as they can for you!
Just make sure you remember to have fun, after all fun is one of life’s most effective forms of medicine! It will cure almost anything.

Well Said Allison!! : )
Oh…..by the way, if you do happen to be reading this comment I was wondering if you knew when Smallville season 7 comes out on DVD. I heard September 9th but I’m not sure. Sorry, I know it has nothing to do with this blog. I was just thinking and this popped into my mind! l8rs! : )

Jackie, there is no official date as of yet, as far as I can tell, but all of the online sites are stocking them from the 9th of September!

Hope this is of use to you!

Hey, to be honest it’s quite nice to have a break from philosophical discussion once in a while!
I know circumstances play a part, perhaps not wealth or poverty so much as other hardships, but there is some truth in the saying that life is what you make it.
May your life continue to be beautiful, as you continue to make art, tell jokes, drink wine, and share stories.
Thanks for sharing with us.

And David, keep those jokes coming!

Life is beautiful and Allison that is one of the things I totally admire about you, you see thing life in such a beautiful way!! And you don’t care what people say about you, you are who you are!! So keep sharing stories,drinking wine, making art and telling jokes!! Keep being who you are!

Allison , I agree life is beautiful. The good days definitely out number the bad ones. Your blogs and your acting always brings a smile to my face. I’m sure your directing will do the same. Lets all drink a glass of wine and enjoy the beautiful weekend. Keep on learning. One of your blog friends. Peter

Nobody’s is better that other,everybody has that something that makes us different….unique….and you have an incredible talent Allison,you don’t have to feel less better than others just because they are good at what they do,like directors,they are just like you,they have an incredible skill at what they do just like you or me,or others,we are unique and special,just because we aren’t as good as they are at their skill that doesn’t mean that we suck,NOT!!!! because we can do other things that they can’t do as well as us……everybody is different and unique……at the end we are all humans trying to have a freaky and awesome day!!!!!!!!! Keep doing what you do,because you’re great at it.
Bye,Melissa.

kyle:
I actually agree with this thinking about it now

“Unfortunately, some will disagree mostly because of difficult circumstances and/or harsh backgrounds.”

And then… getting a little deeper into it the subject than necessary….
is there beauty in abuse, torture, and loveless lives? (which people have no control over)
Where would we draw the line for being sad for someone not having the ability to realize?….
if you get what I mean…

Short, simple but beautiful! this is so true, I’m so impressed and amazed by us as people! love the “in lieu”..hihihi au lieu de….instead of…nah…in lieu of!

Well said Allison, well said!!! I think that life should be drank like a fine glass of wine, slow and deliberate, soaking up all the flavors and rushing to all the senses. Enjoyed to the fullest, and when the last sip has flowed past the pallet, a warm dream like haze covers your eyes and blissful sleep awaits.

amen sister, that we are! what kind of wine, i prefer an older red-anyway those who choose not to use their mind often develop illnesses of the brain later in their life-that is sad i agree. why waste such an incredible thing. the knowledge and depth one can have if chose to keep their mind young and constantly retaining information is one of the most valued possessions we are fortunate to have control over. thank you allison for getting that point out there. i totally agree!!!

I would not be so sure about this .

,,Life is beautiful and for those that refuse to recognize this, I am sad. ”

There might be many reasons why some1 can say that life is not so beautiful as you think about it Allison . Ask some poor poeple about who have to beg for food or money . It depends from our material and money status that firnly makes us happy or gives us things which makes us happy .
