Dancing is living.
Though it is currently 4:40AM, I’m writing this blog because I’ve never been more inspired in my life.
After Thrive’s last performance of the year, I realized why I love dance. It’s not for the glory, make-up, or costumes. Nor is it for the attention. I dance because it brings me nothing but pure joy. Whether it be at rehearsal or in my room, dance has enriched my life in ways that I will never be able to explain through words.
Watching each one of the Thrive dancers on stage and seeing their faces of absolute bliss and enjoyment brought me to tears. Dance shouldn’t be about the competitions, awards, or tricks. Being on Thrive made me realize that it is so much more.
If there is one thing I can take away from this year, it’d be to dance for yourself. Don’t dance for a grade, audience, or trophy. Dance because you can’t live without it. Dance because it’s what you love. Dance for you. You’ll be pleasantly surprised on what you’ll discover.
