He thought what a thrill it would be to create something from nothing, to see one day in the future a new church here where now there was nothing but rubble, and to say, "I made this." Ugh. Yeah, I think that's really powerful. I mean, just for me acting, anytime I'm given a character or I have the privilege of getting to actually play this character and experience her on a stage or in a film and connect with another person, I'm solely getting that experience. And the audience is gonna watch whatever that their story is, whoever those characters are on that screen. There's so much pride that's in that because it's something that comes from you. I can imagine building something back years ago and watching or acknowledging that this is gonna outlive me. Like, I can imagine just how legendary that feels. And to know that you, you built it, like you put blood, sweat, and tears into something.
