Make Up Exam
As a closeted CD, occasionally being a public makeup model for a live class has added greatly to my confidence.
Imagine being a "regular" guy who walks on to a brightly lighted stage. Then, over several hours, in front of dozens of strangers, being transformed and walking off as a convincingly pretty woman. What a trip!
Well, here I am with class participants just after being transformed onstage.
I remember feeling many things, mostly gratitude, perhaps relief it was finally over. I also felt strong and powerful. Odd?
It was surprising to me that class participants were so very complimentary of my "work." What? All I did was sit on a stool and occasionally add my POV or attempt a joke. Easy peasy.....
The MUA did all the work. And she was remarkably talented- don't you think?
From this experience I'm reminded of valuable contributions by people behind our life scenes. Not just MUA's. Think of all the others who support and inspire us. Don't they deserve credit and appreciation more than it is bestowed? Few of us are successful on our own and we've only one life to share - right?
So, at life's end, I'm not counting on a make-up exam.
Are you?
