The Deena Show : Nostalgia part I

Nostalgia part I

(Click on pictures above for larger view!)

Every once in awhile...I find myself consumed with nostalgia. Perhaps consumed is to strong a word. More like a wave washes over me and stays there for a few hours, maybe a day. It can be about many things. I may be young, but sometimes I feel like I've lived a zillion lifetimes. Sometimes I miss NYC. Sometimes I think fondly of high school. I smile to myself remembering days of community theatre and how simple everything was while I was longing for the real thing! I looked through old pictures tonight and decided to scan a few from my senior year of high school! I'm gonna post old pics from time to time to give you a glimpse into my "past lives"! The pics are (from top going down) from a play, going to a banquet, another play, a prom, and on my way to go on a date to the ballet.

xoxo

Hello!

Welcome! My name is Deena Marie Manzanares. Because I think it's far more interesting to know who people are, rather than what they do, let's start there. I'm a highly sensitive person who often felt my heart was made of glass, my nervous system on the outside, not meant for a world so harsh. Over the years I learned to harness life's alchemy to redirect my perceived weakness into my superpower. I am the softest warrior you'll ever meet.

I am a single mother to my son. I saw him in a vision years before he was even a possibility. Birth was the moment of my life. Housing the bones and soul of another is completely life-altering, and put all my priorities in just the right places. He is the greatest love I've ever known.

I'm an actor, model, and tv host. Theatre, and storytelling are sacred to me. As an actor, and as an audience member I am able to dissipate into the whole. Relating to story reminds us we are not alone.

I am a member of Actors Equity Association, and represented by Talent Management Group. I'm brand ambassador for business Got Beauty. I am associate artist with the Sting and Honey theatre company. I am a tv host for ABC4.

Over the years I created a large social media following after an extremely popular YouTube channel(s).

I am a shapeshifting poet. My heart comes in many forms. My words, my poetry, my art, my exchanges with you. I'm in progress. I am a giant heartbeat, I am learning, I am sharing it with you here...
