Opportunities

Timing.  Aticki ticki tocka.  Important.

Study and look around to see.

There was a young actor/writer who had worked long and hard to learn his craft.  He made friends with notable showbiz people.  He planned.

A movie was planned.

He had a friend who was a mentor who could direct.

Another was an advisor/producer.

Details were worked out.

The young man even obtained permission to film from another friend, a County Sheriff and a Chief of Police.

Then reticence set in.

Several factors came into play.  They could have been overcome and momentum would have driven forward.  But, in spite of good efforts, stop is stop.

There had been enemies on the outside who had been overcome.  But being one's own worse enemy cannot.  Finger on the button and off.

There had been a plan to get to know a producer/writer/director and encourage him to finish his own work.  The young man would have accepted any role in helping the legend's commitment.  It didn't happen because of reticence.  The legend's own reticence floundered progress.

Reticence is a death watch beetle.

Neohope has sprung forth.

Though the mentors were elderly and died, there are new contacts and a new approach for not obly the movie, but a series of books that could be turned into movies.

Timing.

We make new opportunities and they beget new projects/new life.

Don't let fear of failure or success stop the new.  Slings and arrows and self wounding are over.

Opportunities for triumph abound.

And any resemblance to current events is not coincidental.
