Supressed by all my, childish fears...

Fascination casts a spell and you became more than just a mystery...Every now and then, pangs of nostalgia hit me and I realize then, more than ever, that I'll always be a dancer. Whether I want to or not, it's a part of me. And I think that if I wasn't so good, it would have been easier to let go of. If I sucked, then quitting would be so easy.

I can relate to this entry so much Lisa, I quit dancing about two years ago, and ever since then, I've wanted to go back. Dancing was such a big part of my life, if not my whole life. I could be going through hell, but as long as I could dance, I know I'd be fine. I've got the rough skin on my toes as well, and every day, they remind me of my true passion.. :)

Every time I read an entry you've written about dancing, I think that you would make a great dance critic. I don't mean the kind of critic who writes small-minded vitriolic pieces about dance performances. I mean the kind of arts journalist who writes in a way that makes you see and feel the passion of the performance, makes you want to go out and buy a ticket and see that performance, or, if you read it after the show is over, regret that you didn't see it. There was a woman like that several years ago here in Chicago, writing for the Tribune--unfortunately, I can't remember her name. She made you really feel how wondrous a dance or a dancer was. I don't know if she had once been a dancer. But I know she loved dance.
