Take Time to Smell the Roses!

Are you a dancer who has tunnel vision? Your ENTIRE existence swirls around your dancing. Wake up-get to class-stretch-eat-take another class-go to an audition-stretch-eat-rehearse-sleep-start all over the next day?

Today's note is TAKE TIME TO SMELL THE ROSES. Your busy dance schedule is hugely important, however, if you are not careful you will miss aspects of life that are meant to enrich your human experience. For example: on your way to the audition have you ever noticed the wild flowers lined along Park Avenue? Or, have you looked up long enough to actually see the sun? Did you take time to call a friend who needs a pick me up?

If you don’t take time to smell the roses you may find yourself alone and lonely. Life is full of great and wonderful moments. And, it only takes a moment to pause and drink it in. You may find that you dance more refreshed as you allow your mind and body to shift focus for a quick sniff of the rose petals.

Take Time to Smell the Roses!
