I do not get home in time to watch "Dancing With the Stars" but I do read about the results on line. I read about Margaret Cho being eliminated.
I was quite taken by what she said. Margaret said that she loved to dance. Danced as a child but quit dancing because someone called her a "fat ballerina". My heart hurt for her when I read that. I imagined a child twirling and whirling with joy in her heart only to be stopped dead in her tracks by someone's careless words.
I am so happy she was able to rediscover that joy...and I give her some much credit for doing it in front of millions of people. No small feat...no pun intended :)
So here's my question for you? What have you stopped doing because someone said you were.......?
What gave you joy, warmed your heart...then you stopped because someone said something?
What have you been losing out on? What have WE have losing out on because you have not continued?
And what would it take for you to recapture that experience today? What is stopping you now?
