Watching the orchestra video made remember so many things. I remembered my dance school days. You spend all your time dancing, there is no time for bad thoughts. Your life become dance, totally! You breath, you eat, you dream, you walk, you talk dance. Your friends become your family since you spend more than 5 daily hours practicing with them. What the boy said about "Music is their lives" it´s totally true. You live for dancing and dance for living. There is nothing else, just dance. And this feelings and thoughts help you to be a better person, because you have something to fight for, you have a reason to improve, you find your passion. And this is the key! Finding your passions will lead you to your life mission!
I think the "Iniciativa Mexico" could be a great platform to develop programs like "El Sistema". Hopefully someone will develop a support system for athletes, artists, musicians, dancers, you name it. We have a lot of talented people in Mexico but unfortunately these talents are waisted.
So find your passions and your talents and squeeze them! Go for your mission!
Now I want to share the choreography "Danzon", same music we heard. By Robert Hill, danced by Ballet de Monterrey. Hope you enjoy it!
Great post, Myrella. Many thanks for wiring this and for our discussion on this today. There's a joy in immersing yourself in craft and the camaraderie that develops with friends. Shared experience and passion... one of the great spices of life.
