Sunday Better



Sunday Better

I came across this quote by Arnold Bennett and thought about how it applies to dancers: “Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts.”

That’s what dancers do on a daily basis: strive for change, and hopefully change for the better. No wonder dancers get discouraged. Our daily quest is “always accompanied by drawback and discomforts.” And let’s talk about discomforts! Just a peek at a ballet dancer's feet will speak volumes.

So, today’s message is this: take heart! Keep striving for change and recognize that drawbacks and discomforts are normal, and part of the process. A process that, we all know, eventually produces wonderful results.
