Dance, expression and not impression

Sometimes, I feel like I'm doing everything wrong. I would feel like I'm getting nowhere, destined to be just another person resigned to an average fate. Then, someone will come along and reveal inadvertently that I'm doing everything right.
Other times, I let others' impressions of myself get the better of me. When I just started dancing (seems like every post has something about dance), people laughed at me. Then I realised that these people only know others by flesh. Today in FT2, it was taught that that is not the way we should acknowledge others. If my passion was for dance, it would only be a matter of time before I rose up and proved them wrong. I don't know if I'm at that level yet, but I'm sure I've improved by leaps and bounds.
Daniel has this to say, "Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. Great dancers are not great just because of their technique, they are great because of their passion." I think it can apply to every area of life, not just dance. Nowadays, people - even youngsters like you and I - no longer look at passion. They only want immediate results. Of course, these people are just compromisers and won't understand how others rise to the top.
Do you really want it? If you do, don't let anything short of God stop you from getting it.
