Timeless

Early morning post! Its still early, considering it will be a looong night. Probably this will be the last post before the event itself. Everything has been packed and ordered as they should be. Its all a matter of time before it begins.

It seems so near, yet so far. Time passes slowly even as I am writing this. Its as though I can see what will happen in a few hours time and all this is just lead up to it. How looong more? I question.

Would everything run smoothly? Nope. There are always hiccups here and there as from experience. BUT would the audience KNOW its a hiccup? Haha nope. Thats the best part. Showmanship derived from experience changes all hiccups into opportunities to better the performance, giving it a fresh touch, perhaps even elevating the whole performance into a new level.

How do i know it will turn out well? Cos its time to fulfill the promises in accordance to what You have said. Just like prophets fulfill their missions. Its soon time for the prophecy to pass. Vision and dreams are just a way to come even closer to You. We walk a thousand miles just to see Your face.

True. A lot of hard work and sweat went into this performance. Most of the big gadgets are all derived from time and effort and thought. Have to admit that some were constructed in this final week itself. BUT these would not change circumstances as these big props are just to bring out a majestic look and feel. Elevating normal magic performances to a mystical concert experience.

I truly wonder how many people would turn up and how many of them would actually love the performance so much such that they give a standing ovation. Many years work and practice over the routines to give tonights concert its magical touch. And yes. I wonder if there would be many lovely memories to hold to in the guestbook, pre concert rehearsal, concert time, post concert photo shoots and chat. I want to hold on to these making them a part of me that stays inside forever. To remember to remember.

Will i be injured later on? Somewhat. Throwing cards always hurt your muscles since you need a flick and sudden jerk. I am glad its only for 1 minute, but its still pretty long and taxing. Nail punctures the skin like anything... just hope that my instinct guides me well. Razor blades are sharp and can cut. Lets not cut anything else but the celery. Glass is sharp too....

How much more would i give of myself just to make this happen?

Some ppl think that its a unworthy risk to take... esp since your hands are so much more important especially when you are in such a course. Opportunity cost is high. But don't you think practice makes perfect? And what about faith? Don't you have faith?

Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

I have faith.

The time has come for the vision to come to pass, for the glory to be unto You, for the prophecy to be fulfilled... 9 hrs time
