Actually the notes made me a little sad, on one hand, viewed in that context of what-ifs, and for you, there were key moments that were so pivotal. But I often see old pilots and forgotten shows on YouTube and think about the actors for whom that was their big shot and we never saw them again. Some people have just one big, pivotal what-if to ponder. It can be painful.
On the other hand BK, you’ve had many shots and built a life many would dream of. In other words, to be in position to have the number of what-ifs you’ve had means you had a lasting, recognizable talent and persona. The entertainment world kept coming back to you. Then you managed that level of talent across multiple platforms!
Not that you need a pep rally, but the worst kind of what-ifs, like the ones that plague me, are, what if I’d tried the various things I’d liked to have done? What if I’d pushed my talent, really gone for it, artistically, been unafraid to fail?
You got roadblocked by fate, assholes, shingles, maybe a bad decision here or there, but never by fear.
