Guys, I miss the dance world. I miss grueling practices and hours of physical activity. I miss being able to put on makeup like a champ [actually, that never happened...] and I miss being able to ask advice to any girl around about hair, makeup, dance, etc...and they would all know the answer. I miss pampering my body with both work outs and long hot baths. Basically, I miss feeling like I'm important. I don't get that feeling very often anymore, especially as a stage manager, but also as a friend.
I know what you're going to say. Yes, dance also gave me some problems. Like the fact that I still end up comparing myself to people that I shouldn't be, and that I have an unhealthy obsession with being right at something. I just...I miss that kind of discipline. Dance was [and I guess still is] a huge part of my life and I think I gave up too soon. My body still has more left in it. I want to be pushed again, I want to wake up barely able to walk because of the classes the day before. It might not appeal to many people, but sometimes it reminds me of how alive I am.
I've said it before, if I could have picked anything in life, I picked two of the hardest professions in the world: first dance, then stage managing. Both grueling, both
