I
recently just fulfilled my "Tangled" moment.
As
of last Spring, my dreams finally came true. I'll admit that
before my first private lessons I felt so much like Rapunzel in
Disney's Tangled when she is out in the boat waiting to see the
floating lights.
"I've
been dreaming of this my whole life.
What if it isn't everything I
hoped it would be?"
But
you know what? 8 months in, ballet
is everything I hoped it would be and more. I will never
grace a stage (although I did dance on it with my class last
December, so fun!) or look like a stereotypical ballerina, but I am
stronger and happier than ever thanks to this opportunity.
Words
cannot even express how much it has meant to me to follow up on a
lifelong dream and make it a reality at an age where everyone had
told me that it was “too late”. Turns out, everyone
was wrong. It is never too late. So what have you
always wanted to do but have been unable to find the time or
opportunity to pursue it? I am telling you to go for it. Ask
around and find a teacher to help you learn how to paint, play an
instrument, dance, cook, or build your own log cabin, etc. And NEVER
give up your dreams!
“Go!
Live your dream!”
And
dance on everyone!
