Why am I an actress?

When I was 3 years old I let go of my mother's hand to sneak onto the stage of a children's theater, grab a microphone and start singing ''Susanita has a mouse''
Neither the song nor I were part of the program. That first contact with an audience that I was not expecting created an anchor and a unique, different sensation that I did not recognize due to my young age. They took me off the stage and I went from being the performing Angela to the girl whose mother scolded for the prank.
Over the years I loved the fact that being an actress means living different lives and situations, with the good and the bad...and being able to leave the story whenever you want.
And without anyone scolding you.
