So for those of you who don't know me, my passion is Musical Theatre. But trust me, you will be hearing plenty more about that later! Right now I am currently playing the role of "kala" in the stage version of Disney's Tarzan. Kala is the female gorilla who at first loses her own baby and then discovers a new (but human) baby that she raises as her own.
Playing this role has really made me reflect on family. Specifically what it means to be a mother. I have no experience of what it's like being a mother but I hope that one day I will. One day faaaaar in the future, don't worry I'm still only 16. I feel like it's only natural for girls to day dream about who they will marry, how many children they'll have, etc. What fascinates me the most is when new mothers describe the feeling of instant unconditional love they have for their child. My own mother tells me how when she first held me in her arms she felt like she had known me her whole life.
I'm not really sure why I felt the need to blog about this tonight. I guess I just really have being a mom on my mind. I guess I am looking forward to having that unconditional love not only onstage but offstage...someday.
