Acting as a whole

I posted a few blogs about acting, but I think we need to address the why do we do this. Over all there has to be something, a spark or a thrill that we go up on stage and perform to audience. I would love to have other opinion but I can only put mine. I love the idea of a show, and a good one too. When you start a play you need to provide entertainment for the audience and all the work, blood and sweat that goes in there i think isn't paid back in the cash but in the cheers from the audience. The feeling you get when you are taking bows is amazing and just know that its was all worth it gets me hooked and I want another play to come.
