The Berlin Stories. Yes, I've read it. The first part is very dry. It was very hard to get through "The Last of Mr. Norris". But, "Goodbye to Berlin" is just fabulous. Then Chris meets Sally, it gets really enteresting. There is also this story called "On Reugen Island". I think you will really like Otto Nowak.
Raul, such a warm fuzzy kitten so unafraid to be honest and open with his emotions. J'adore Raul. And if I ever called him Kitten to his face, I would curl up and die.
He is such an inspiration to me, and a very big part of my life. I want to perform, and he's been so supportive of that. Not just supportive, but encouraging too. I really admire him for his talent, but also for his willingness to give. Because that's what performing is about. The truely great performers, are performing to give. They want to affect people. I know what it's like to get so blessed, really, by a great performance (such as the one in The Normal Heart). And I want to be able to bless people in that same way. That's how it is for him. He's not looking for self gratification. He's doing this becuase he's good at it, and he can move people and effect their lives. The great thing is, Raul Esparza has inspired me to soar. Wether he knows it or not.
