🎭⚔️CONFESSIONS OF A GAY DRAMA QUEEN: PART TWO⚔️🎭

by Adam Cerny

🔞CAUTION🔞 Rated R for language
{In this follow-up sequel to CONFESSIONS OF A GAY DRAMA QUEEN (which you can watch right HERE 👉🏻http://bit.ly/2rV0PA5👈🏻), the character of “Adam” continues to wrestle with his shadow. The shadow of “Adam” personifies a conscious + androgynous entity named “Drama”. “Adam” is a character; this film is not autobiographical. It’s very fictional.}

Every piece of art I create infuses a self-reflective meditation. I received the gift of being an artist to work through reconciling differences in my life.
What does that mean?
Every single one of you has a duality within you. As I grew up I realized I was living halfway between two valid worlds. Reality + Fantasy. I created a space for both of them; I walked that fine line. When these two realities fight, that is the inner discord I speak of so often. They fought + struggled to merge together. Much like how we fight to merge with another through the act + professing, of “love”
I can bring the fantasy into reality when I play out + perform these raw emotions for the world to see. It’s not me you’re seeing, though. It’s not me you’re hearing, either. I have the innate ability to reflect (or, mirror back) to you the reflection of yourself. What you’re seeing through me are all the parts of yourself you either love or hate the most.

Recent world events have divided the collective. I cringe when I hear the trite adage, “We’re all in this together!”
No… we aren’t. We are definitely NOT in this “together”. I refute that statement because it’s not accurate.
The accurate (and, more honest) way of phrasing it would be: “We’re all on a journey together, but, we’re not IN this TOGETHER. In fact, we’re very NOT together.” Because that’s the reality.
It’s also the opportunity. Amidst all this pain we feel, see, hear, etc… there is an infinitesimal spark of joy. Of light. It's yearning to burst out + merge. We’ve received the opportunity to CHOOSE union with ourselves. With others, and with our various realities. We can choose integration. We can take all things + consider their best interests as part of our own. That’s love.

We grow up thinking all “bad” things in the world are separate from us. We’re taught there exists a predator + a victim. A clear division between right vs. wrong, good vs. evil.
Childhood is ripe for fragmentation of the mind. As children, when we experience trauma, our consciousness splits in two. Into two separate fragmented realities. It must do so to protect our emotional body. By the time we reach adulthood, we’re directing 50-100 “fragments” of ourselves. All existing at the same time. Everyone operates with several personalities.
The irony is that this mechanism exists for the sole purpose of protecting us. In fact, it’s the very thing that destroys us. We’re all a bunch of fragmented people. Walking around damaging each other without even knowing it. Hurt people hurt people.
If you study your enemies, I promise you’ll start to recognize yourself. You’ll come to the epiphany that there is no separation, and an ego-death happens. A complete process of undoing. What then?
You marry the night. You integrate your shadow. You get to know the sickest, darkest, most obsessive parts of yourself. In reality, you love yourself that much. As you should. You get to know these parts. You bring them into the light (love), and then, integrate them back into your consciousness as you see fit. That’s your birthright.

I use the characters of “Adam” + “Drama” in both films to show that, at no point, are we ever unaware of what is what. For everything we don’t know, we always have the answer. Deep down somewhere. Always.
If you take anything away from this blog post or from viewing the short film, I hope it’s this. You are always going to be the one you’ve been waiting for. I, too, wish we could find that mirrored in other people, but that’s not the reality.
Tell yourself that you are there for it. You’re showing up. Then, promise yourself you’ll never abandon again.
You can do this.
Why?
Because I SAID SO. THAT’S why. 😘

💗ALL WE EVER NEEDED WAS LOVE 💗(Pandemic of Loneliness) by Adam Cerny

ALL WE EVER NEEDED WAS LOVE (Pandemic of Loneliness)

By Adam Cerny

I want to preface everything by saying that this is only a perspective. My perspective. It’s very important that we hold space for everyone to feel how they want to feel. There is no “right” or “wrong”. I hold space for all perspectives because everyone’s is valid. The only place I’ve observed where we land together is the land of fear consciousness. Not only am I feeling it, but I’m watching humanity respond to fear consciousness.

I’m not going to tell you what I know you should do or feel, because what the fu** do I know? (I know a lot, actually) Live your life and do you, right? The idea that I should be telling a group of people what to do; I mean, think about that. The answers you’re looking for aren’t going to come from out there somewhere. They’re going to come from inside of yourself. Because – when hasn’t it? Think about that. Think about your life. What you’ve been through. All the pain you’ve endured + all you have suffered. Then – remember that you still laugh. The point is that it is still good in this world. It is still good for you. It can be.

Is that enough? For you? For me? I’m not sure it is, sometimes, to be honest. This is why I cannot paint myself as a saint, as much as I would love to do that. Trust me. I’m an actor. In case you hadn’t noticed, I LIKE the attention. Every single other actor out there agrees lol. You all know it. So – I’m being honest because I don’t know how NOT to tell the truth. This is why when I tell stories on stage, I fuc**ng mean them. It’s real for me. But – this – isn’t a story. We’re in real life.

This is not about “dealing” with ANYTHING. This is about dancing with it. In times of crisis, there is so much opportunity. Wanted vs. unwanted is a design to help develop your own self-awareness. I have a SPOILER ALERT for you. Fear is not going anywhere. One cannot live a life without fear. Fearlessness? There is no such thing. Hiding our fears from people doesn’t mean they aren’t there. What is the fear? It’s information. Information on a world or an outcome that is not wanted. It’s in the reaction to the fear that causes people to do regretful things. Ignoring fear also causes us to do stupid things. But – why is this? Fear has a way of persuading us that the most important thing in life is survival. I’m here to say – that is incorrect. The most important thing in life is not survival. The QUALITY of life is what is most important.

In case you hadn’t yet noticed, most of 2020 is going to be about owning fear. We’ve all lost our capacity for the destruction phase in rebirth. I've experienced several near-death moments in my life. I have a standard to measure “being alive” next to many things. This virus has exposed our society’s OBSESSION with privacy. When our privacy becomes compromised, fear + panic set in. Our immune systems weaken.

The virus has taken complete advantage of an immune-compromised society. Overworked, overstressed, overstimulated, and undernourished. We’ve created a detrimental mix that births a cold + dry environment for this virus to thrive. The answers to our questions start inside. When was the last time you did an internal inventory of yourself?

What CAN you do? Recognize the paradigm of fear is a story created from a misconstrued reality. It's gone overboard. Have empathy + understanding. Fear-based paradigms aren’t stopping or going anywhere. These paradigms will continue. We continue to shift into the quantum field into higher dimensionality. There are no shortcuts. You cannot escape this. You must see it + watch it + experience it because it’s up to you to show the way out of it. We cannot blame the way humans are responding to their consciousness. For those of you who understand me – you are a light being in human form.

The opposite of fear is love, so fuc**ng practice love. Take this time to work on yourself. You have a GIFT to live a better life in a new world. Every single person on this Earth deserves the right to enjoy the life they’re in. Share your thoughts with others. It doesn’t matter how much worse anyone else has it. Everyone’s feelings are valid + need acknowledgment. Hope can and will deliver you from your darkest days.

People need people. I’ve always said this. Please - it is my ask to all you. Try to cultivate authentic space to hold validity for everyone’s individual realities. We are a pack species. We can’t survive in isolation. Yes - people can be annoying. Yes - life is not fair. But you know what? Sometimes, it IS fair. Sometimes, people + connection makes you feel alive. Turn the situation into a win-win. Not for me. For yourself. Do this, for you. It’s the most loving act of kindness you could give yourself now.

You’re going to fu** up. We all are. We’re going to make mistakes. We can count on that being an inevitability. Think about polarity. If that endless list of unwanted things is infinite…then the opposite side of the coin exists. What stands between you + where you want to be? Show up for yourself. Because you can.

It's easy to feel small in a world of billions of people. It's easy to convince ourselves that we don't matter. I can assure you nothing could be farther from the truth. You do matter. You are pure energy. What you do with this life means something. I wouldn’t sell you spiritual novocaine, which is why I’m telling you the way things are. You, yourself, you matter. When you are sad and when you are happy. You create a ripple effect. You would not be right where you are if you weren’t supposed to be. The easy way to tell is if you weren’t where you’re supposed to be…you wouldn’t be there. Very easy.

All you EVER needed was love. Start acting like it. I promise you – you will come out of this a brand-new person. The person you always wanted to be. The person your inner child dreamed of becoming. You WILL come back into alignment + harmony. You are LOVED. You're SEEN. You're HEARD. And you are MOST DEFINITELY validated.

Why?
Because. I SAID so. THAT’S why. ❤️

COMIN' IN HOT (Welcome to Leo Season! Owning your Needs) by Adam Cerny

COMIN’ IN HOT (Welcome to Leo Season! Owning your Needs)

By Adam Cerny

Video + Facebook post can be watched HERE 👉🏻http://bit.ly/2JZyfWB👈🏻

✚ Regardless of what society or your parents taught you: LOVE IS NOT ABOUT SELF-SACRIFICE.
➣ Love is about finding a “win-win” scenario. For any party involved in the relationship, love is about the accommodation of each other’s best interests. Love is about facing incompatibility when no win-win exists. This is not solely dedicated to romantic love - this encompasses all types of love - since, all there is IS love. Love is integration; love is oneness.

✚ There’s a deadly trap inherent in all of this.
➣ Let’s talk about our “best interests”, our needs, and how to meet them. Best interests are your own personal needs. In fact, the terms “best interests” + “needs” are synonymous, for the sake of this message.
By not owning your own best interests, you make it literally impossible to have a relationship. Why? Because you make it LITERALLY impossible to have your best interests accommodated. So - by NOT considering your own best interests, you make a “win-win” scenario, impossible!
If you disown your needs (don’t think you’re THAT self-sacrificial), you will STILL directly + consciously (or unconsciously) take care of them. Your only option, because you can’t get rid of them, is to meet those needs in a MANIPULATIVE way. Since we inherit ancestral trauma, if this pattern of disowning our own best interests runs deeply enough, then we’re going to meet those needs + interests in the most damaging way.
➣ This is how it will happen: You will unconsciously manipulate to meet your best interests through the pity you get from being “the victim”. You will turn everything around you into the “bad guy” so that you see yourself as “good”. And, so that other people will see you as “good”. You get the kick-backs of being “the underdog”, even when you actually aren’t.

✚ If you disown your best interests, the NICEST person on the PLANET can be forced to play your “zero-sum-game” that they never even knew they were playing, and therefore, never would have wanted to win, even if they knew they were playing it!
➣ What’s a zero-sum game? It’s this: “I win, you lose. Or…I lose, you win. There’s no in-between.” A zero-sum-game offers two options where one person will always “lose”…and it never considers the third option of accommodating everyone’s best interests.
➣ I’ll be honest. It’s absolutely terrifying to go from being a person who learned that to be a “good person”, you have to be selfless + disown your best interests…to BECOME a person who considers owning them. Even THOUGH it’s terrifying, even THOUGH you want that “perfect relationship”, you must begin to own your best interests.
➣ You must communicate them from the get-go; not years later. When you do not express your needs in the beginning, and retroactively punish someone for not meeting them, that’s when you know your life is really going to hit the fan.

✚ I’ll let you in another secret that I tell my clients.
➣ What is love? Love is considering the needs + best interests of another person, and taking them as your own. This is a reciprocal act. Therefore, if you + I are taking each other’s best interests + needs as our own, it will be impossible for us to hurt each other without completely damaging ourselves.
➣ Try this out on yourself. Today. Right now. MEET YOUR NEEDS. Get to know them. Create SPACE for them to exist. Find ways to accommodate yourself. I promise you - unless you know how to meet your needs, you’re never going to find anyone in perfect alignment to meet them for you. And for those of you who think someone “saved you”….while that notion is wonderfully romantic, what ACTUALLY happened, is that you saved yourself.
➣ No matter what you do in your life - do it, coming in HOT. The cold will freeze + eventually shatter. Welcome to LEO season, where the element of fire in your natal chart is going to come in useful. Get to know your elements.
That’s how you “self-love”. It’s not about forcing yourself to love yourself SO THAT “something” can happen…it’s not about faking it till you make it…it’s about sitting in the authentic space of who you are…which you never have to apologize for.

Why? Because I SAID SO…THAT’S why.

Welcome to Leo season! 🔆🌞
Peace + Love! ✌🏻☮️❤️🕉

→♉︎THREE FACES OF ADAM ♏︎←

by Adam Cerny ♑︎

✚ Subject 1: Trauma ✚
✚ Subject 2: Transformation ✚
✚ Subject 3: Fragmentation ✚

〈You cannot remind people who they are when they would rather forget〉

To - ANYONE WHO HAS EVER LOVED or FELT PAIN,
I’m about to get very real, because, we all should be. The personal journey of never-ending self-reflection that those of us are on, can feel shitty, at times. The journey can feel excellent, too.  
I’m validating all your emotions. You were right to feel that way when you did. Because you were doing the best you could at that time. So let that person, that version of you…off the hook. I know it’s very disheartening to accept the futility of a situation gone sour. 
Here’s the thing. I’ve noticed some common pitfalls. 
For those of us who are trying to “get to the bottom” of something in our lives…in case you haven’t noticed yet…there is no “bottom”. For those of us who are the “deep inner healing” path, there’s a reason it hasn’t worked yet.
You cannot go into it thinking, “I’m going to change this part of myself. I’m going to gaslight myself by turning this negative experience into a positive outcome.” This. Is. The. Lie. See - whatever happened to make you feel this way - wasn’t okay. You were right to feel the way you did. 
I see the disappointment in yourself when you let yourself down. I see people betray themselves daily. I sit here thinking, “How the hell do they expect to ever love themselves if they’re denying, disowning, rejecting, and pushing away, a part of themselves?” It’s the ultimate betrayal; separation.  
It’s because we lie to ourselves. 
Because - in case you hadn’t noticed - if what you were doing was working - IT WOULD HAVE WORKED BY NOW. You know? 
Great. So.
Here’s a challenge. If you’re in pain, I’m asking to accept that you’re in pain. To feel it, doesn’t mean you’ve “accepted” it. Care MORE about yourself than the “daily affirmations” you’re beating yourself up for. 
I want you to love + care about yourself so much that it doesn’t matter if you’re “better” or “fixed”. 
Here’s the spoiler alert. It’s not about “getting better”. It’s not about “changing” any part of who you are. Create space for your pain to co-exist in the light with you. I want you to feel this.
Do you feel how when you say, “I want to be better”, you’re telling yourself to be something other than what you are? I’m not asking you to approve of the conditions, by any means. 
The reality is that we’ve never accepted that it’s okay to feel our emotions. Which means we’ve never given ourselves permission to be who we are. Throw “authenticity” out the door. We like the version of ourselves that “feels good”…and we abandon ourselves when we don’t. Right?
So that’d be the definition of being our own worst enemy, yes? 
That’s the reality. 
I’m not going to be gentle about this. It’s time to wake up, sunshine, and see that the key to your pain, is in your pain. Pain is your body saying, “Hey! I’m something you’ve been suppressing! I want to come up for healing! If you keep pushing me away…I’ll show up in more nefarious ways. I am suppressed emotional pain. I will graduate to physical pain because there is no separation between the two.”
Do you see how pernicious this cycle can become? 
I want you to honor all your emotions because otherwise, I’d be asking you to betray yourself. No. Instead - LOVE yourself so hard it hurts. I’m not asking you to like pain. Love yourself, with NO conditions attached. “Love” is taking something’s best interests as your own best interests…as to become one, again…oneness, whole, etc... 
I don’t care who you are. You ARE SO deserving of love. 

This is the way things are. Take it or leave it. 

You cannot remind people who they are when they would rather forget. 

THREE FACES OF ADAM shows what can happen when we forget. 
I don’t want you to feel sad. I don’t want you to feel happy. I want you. All you. The way you are. Right now. In THIS moment. No conditions.
Spoiler alert - that’s what unconditional love is. Walk the talk.

FREAKSHOW by Adam Cerny

FREAKSHOW by Adam Cerny

Remember how fun it used to be to find “easter eggs” hidden within your favorite films? We’ve become a bit desensitized to that excitement, I feel. Now, we expect the little surprises. I like stories which retain a spirit of magic. It’s rare to find that very individual + personal honesty in storytelling nowadays. This unification of “method” under certain umbrellas (schools of thought) indoctrinate us into a pattern of imitating + resembling.

Storytelling can be a very personal, spiritual process. It’s a transcendental exercise of focused energy + intent. The act of telling a story is a process of movement in itself. It’s as much an “experience” for the actors + crew as it is for the audience…just, flipped.

A lot of audiences don’t know that their energy is read like a hawk from those on stage. This is why I believe storytelling + acting are deeply personal and sometimes private, processes. The “easter eggs” in my short films are hidden in plain sight. Once the egg is cracked open there is sweetness to find.

I’m a person like anyone else in the sense that I’m amazingly flawed + human. I have this “sordid past” of sorts… that only makes sense, right? Because we all do. We all have a freakshow within us where all of the rare oddities come out to play. This is where the conundrum starts: do I blend or stand out?

My Vedic Sagittarius moon wants to tell you to let your freak flag fly, proudly. My Tropical Capricorn moon wants me to tell you to reel it in. My Tropical Scorpio ascendant is going to show you everything you’re scared of, in yourself, through me. I serve as a mirror for your subconscious. I’m also going to tell you that it’s okay to show your flaws.

Because - who gets to decide “said attribute” is a flaw? Who decided flaws are inherently "bad"? Who? You? Me? Or is it just open season, for anyone? The answer is going to be different for everyone. While I preach a message of unity + oneness in this Universe, conversely I want to marry that with the self-awareness of being a separate being. Of expressing yourself through your body. We are all fragments of each other, searching for our way back to unity.

Take it easy on yourself. You won’t have all the answers + you’ll never get it all “right”. Sometimes you will, sometimes you won’t, and sometimes you’ll straddle the line between the two. And - you know what? That’s okay. Why? Because I said so. That’s why.

Enjoy the show!

SHOVANIST: A Chauvinist Story by Adam Cerny (based on the book "Men are Better than Women" by Dick Masterson)

SHOVANIST: A Chauvinist Story by Adam Cerny (based on the book "Men are Better than Women" by Dick Masterson)

🛑❌CAUTION: Rated R for LANGUAGE. If subjects surrounding Gay Marriage or Gender Equality are a TRIGGER for you, please, pass on viewing this film❌🛑

(Note: This is an acting piece based on the book “Men are Better Than Women” by Dick Masterson. To purchase his book on Amazon, click HERE 👉🏻https://amzn.to/2Q188OC👈🏻)

I want to teach a little lesson on the topic of HATE. If you feel triggered, don’t read further. If you’re open, let’s go.
This movie is going to test you. I mean, REALLY test you.
I want you to challenge yourself.
I want to see how long you can listen to the character in this film talk before you explode with anger, or shut off with disgust.
For every time you reach a “crisis moment”, or a moment where you think I’ve gone “too far”…

1.) Stop the video and write down on paper the specific words that offended you.
2.) Identify with your fear (after all, pushing anything away from you is always operating from a place of fear, **WINK**) How do you do this? By feeling the emotion you experience, capturing it, and then put its essence to paper, again. Adjectives.
3.) I want you to look at the emotion you’ve written down on paper. Feel it. Now - think back - way back - to the VERY first time you remember feeling that specific emotion. Go back as early as you can.
4.) What was going on then? What caused you to assign the meaning (emotion) you did, to the particular event?
5.) Do you enjoy feeling this emotion? If yes, proceed no further. If no, let’s go.
6.) Think about what’s good about feeling this emotion. Think, search, find everything that is “good” about your emotion, and write it down.
7.) You’ve just brought a shadow aspect of yourself into the light. Congratulations. 🙏🏻❤️ This means the reaction you had to the film…(this will blow your mind lol)…had NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FILM. Whoa! Did I blow your mind, there? It’s a conditioned response to an event in your early childhood where you assigned an emotion to it. It worked at the time, yes. It’s outdated, though. Look at this self-awareness you have now! Imagine how many times you’ve looked at events in your life through this ORIGINAL lens you created. You just identified it.

I go after Feminism and Gay Rights in this film because they are hot topics, buzzwords + are all still a conglomeration of issues that are not yet solved. Even today. Gloria Steinem only opened the door to the Playboy Mansion, right? We need more people to step through it if there’s going to be an effective change.

“Change”. Another awesome buzzword. So often used, so rarely seen. Much like how we treat the fact that the behavior shown in this film is a reality, today.

I’m going to be really real. Our society has an embarrassingly Kindergarten-approach to emotions + emotional intimacy + equality. The character in this film is the perfect representation of everything that makes us cringe. He’s purposely tapping into an emotional space that we leave unexplored.

Why do these jokes exist, to begin with? Have we asked that question? How do we find humor in dire situations? Why do we find humor? Is there a purpose to it?

Another question we could consider asking ourselves is: where do I feel comfortable “drawing the line”? What’s your threshold? This film will most definitely challenge your ability to withstand a satirist view of an unbelievably ignorant truth.

Yes - people like this really do exist.
How does that make you feel?
Let’s talk about it.

VLOG #1: CHICAGO ROAD TRIP by Adam Cerny + Samuel Schelly

VLOG #1: CHICAGO ROAD TRIP by Adam Cerny + Samuel Schelly

Welcome to the first part of my new VLOG SERIES! I must thank the talented Samuel Schelly for conceiving the concept that fuels this first installment. I was wracking my brain for weeks asking myself, “What kind of film do I want to do next? What do I want to SAY? DO I have anything more to say?” This happened ad nauseam. One day, Samuel simply suggested, “Why don’t you do a Vlog?”

“A Vlog? REALLY?! I just don’t know if I’m that interesting. Would people even want to watch the REAL ME? People are only interested in me when I’m a character, or if I’m playing somebody who ISN’T ME.” - myself.

“DO A VLOG.” - Samuel.

Off we were. My new epoch was beginning. The content I’ve shared with my social media audience has undergone several renewals, face-lifts, alternations, and transmutations. What do I want to broadcast to the world? I’ll tell you.

I’m enough. Self-love is the trump card. Yet, while that concept is shoved down our throats in the present, we were (at least, indirectly) taught that self-love is parsimonious, self-indulgent. I’ll clear that up for you.

Answer: WRONG. Self-love is to, 100%, offer absolutely no resistance to yourself. That’s what self-love is. Even I am still figuring this all out, and to be honest, I’m not so sure I’m that great at it. And - that is okay. Because the truth of who I really am is not what I know will make me look attractive to other people.

I’m honest about my weaknesses, and the things I have a strong grasp on. It’s in THIS honesty that I can find some sort of STABLE platform of humility. Since love is my birthright, I decided that I’m interesting enough on my own. Vlog-time.

Road trip! Watch as Samuel + I navigate our way to Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, getting continually lost, thinking about this really talented + pretty girl named Haley Teel, and fanning all over the toe-tapping Nik LaMaack. Then, we move onto some hilariously inappropriate + amazing moments with Samuel and I. Stay tuned for VLOG #2: COMING SOON!
