As I look at the clock at 1:16 am, I ask myself "self! why are you up?". And as long as I don't respond to myself makes it a sure indication that I'm not going insane lol. I have soooooooooo many things running through my little brain, and the fact that the little one is asleep does make my "me time" that much more intimate. I have new music and choreography that I need to break down, emails that I need to respond to, and a meeting in the am that I should be resting up for.........And still I'm up. I have half of mind to put my I-pod on and work on some new moves for class, but my other half of my mind is telling me to go to bed. How can I sleep when I have so much to create and innovate. I sat tonight and watched the Mo'nique show for the first time and listened to Laurie-Ann Gibson pour her heart out about her journey to becoming a dancer. I was so connected to her every word, I caught myself nodding to her words as if she was in my living room speaking to me herself. I've been up just thinking how many times and how often I lose sight with my passion of dance. I want to throw in the towel and just get a 9-5 job, then I remember that I was blessed. I'm blessed with a talent that few can achieve through classes and training. Dance takes me to a level of therapeutic bliss! And now I'm blessed enough to share my love and passion through teaching my classes. Even though the journey to success has a bunch of bumps in the road, I'd rather get that one flat tire to bring me back to reality. With anything you love you must fight for it. Nothing in life comes easy! My brain is now on creative overload, so as I sit here with the beat of the rhythm of the night I bid you farewell :)
See you in the Gym,
Alici Nura
