The first week of rehearsals for the Arad Goch Summer Theatre Tour of a brand new drama for children - JEMIMA are in the bag, and I've taken advantage of the opportunity over the past week to reflect on what I have been aiming for my whole life, and this opportunity has been helped and inspired by being in a room with other creatives that share the same energy and enthusiasm of creating a piece of theatre in a collective, collaborative and kind way.

"No one has to compete with anyone else to succeed in life." - Leigh Alexandra

Have you ever considered that perhaps things aren't meant to be the way you have been thinking they are?

What if the 'best' that you have been searching for your whole life (if you have)... doesn't fit the expectation or narrative that society has made you think you have to?

I'm throwing the mindset that you have to be competitive, or jealous, or fearful out through the window; in order to enjoy living in a more peaceful way with myself (and others) and to work organically and to the best of my ability in any given moment - without thinking that I have to aim to be anything other than myself.

No ego.

no negativity.

No restrictions.

Come with me to explore and think about your 'best'.

Thanks for listening, Leigh Alexandra

Mae'r wythnos gyntaf o ymarferion ar gyfer daith Theatr Haf Arad Goch o'r ddrama i blant newydd - JEMIMA bellach wedi gorffen, a dwi wedi cymryd mantais dros yr wythnos diwethaf o'r cyfle i adlewyrchu dros yr hyn dwi wedi bod yn anelu ati ar hyd fy holl fywyd, a mae'r cyfle hon wedi'i helpu a'i ysbrydoli wrth fod mewn 'stafell gyda greadigwyr eraill sy'n rhannu'r un egni a frwdfrydedd o greu darn o theatr mewn modd cydweithredol a charedig.

"Does neb yn gorfod cystadlu gyda neb arall i lwyddo yn bywyd." - Leigh Alexandra

Ydych chi erioed wedi ystyried bod pethau ddim i fod y ffordd roeddech chi'n meddwl?

Beth os mae'r 'gore' (gorau) y rydych wedi bod yn chwilio amdani eich holl fywyd... ddim yn ffitio'r disgwyliad ma' cymdeithas wedi gwneud i chi feddwl sydd rhaid?

Dwi'n taflu'r feddylfryd bod angen bod yn gystadleuol, neu'n genfigenys, neu'n ofnus allan trwy'r ffenest, er mwyn byw mewn modd fwy heddychlon ac i weithio yn organig ac i'r gorau yn y foment bresennol - heb feddwl bod rhaid i fi anelu at fod yn unrhyw beth heb law am fi fy hun.

Dim ego.

Dim negyddiaeth.

Dim rhwystrau.

Dewch gyda fi i feddwl am eich 'gore'.

Diolch am wrando, Leigh Alexandra.

N.B - Pan dwi'n dweud "agor lleuad"... dwi wrth gwrs yn meddwl "llygaid" - er mod i'n caru'r lleuad.
