TO REACH THE STARS,
TRY WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART.
BUT BEFORE YOU CAN REACH THEM,
YOU JUST HAVE TO ​START.

This poem has been sort of a philosophy of mine. It came out of my signature. When I was little and saw my costars giving autographs. I knew I had to come up with a fancy signature like they had. I started writing my name with a star and a heart at each end.
Star + Heart = START


There were a lot of things in my life that I started doing before I had the chance  to overthink it. I liked performing, so my parents put me in a theatre group when I was three. I was writing music before I knew how to play an instrument- that's why my mother had me take piano lessons. By the time  I was nine or so and played guitar and piano, I started writing music for real. I liked the sound of the ukulele so I taught myself to play it. Same with the mandolin, bodhran, celtic harp, ruan and so on. I fell in love with a greek song so I started learning Greek. I liked "Who's Line is it Anyway?" so I started taking improv classes and joined an adolescent improv troupe, "Giggle Gaggle." I liked Ballroom and Latin so I added that to my list of dance classes at age 11.

​You can wait your whole life to take that dance class you've been promising to go to, or start that charity for the cause you really believe in because, "It's too hard," "I don't know how to do it," or "I just don't have time right now" and all the other excuses we all come up with when trying to talk ourselves out of doing something we want to do. Or we can take that first step. The path might be unclear and the destination might be unknown, but at least you're moving - however slowly- forward- or backward, because that's bound to happen multiple times. And that's okay. Because even moving backwards is better than standing still.

So here's me, starting something: a website. What'll be on here or what purpose this will have, I don't really know yet. But I'm excited to start working it out.

here's a little bit about me by a completely unbiased source: My Father

Darcy Rose Byrnes is an American and Irish performer. She is best known for playing Abby in The Young & the Restless and Bold & the Beautiful, Penny in Desperate Housewives and the speaking and singing voice of Princess Amber in Sofia the First and Elena of Avalor. She is currently the speaking and singing voice of Maricela on Dreamworks' new Netflix series Spirit: Riding Free. She is a prolific writer who's written over 100 songs (She says her current number is almost up to 130 finished and in the 170s unfinished) and is currently working on her first album. She loves learning languages, she is most fluent (besides English) in ASL (American Sign Language). Other unnecessary trivia: She has overrun our home with musical instruments, she spontaneously bursts into operatic versions of whatever song is stuck in her head at the time (i.e. Carry on Wayward Son as done by Maria Callas) or any song as sung by the wrong artist (i.e. Time after Time as done by Cher), she swings around the dance floor like an angel and then literally falls standing still if she's not singing a song in her head (it's called Dancer's syndrome) and if you ask her what she wants ("Going to the store, want anything?") Her answer is always a "Pony". Although she recently upgraded it to "Unicorn".
