I wish I had talent
I mean real talent. Yes, I'm a dancer, but I'm a very mediocre dancer. I have been working so hard in jazz and ballet class. I am busting my ass....literally. I'm risking injury every night because I am pushing my 32 year old body so hard. But I just hate the fact that I can't seem to get past just being an "ok dancer". I want to be good.....really good. A new girl joined our class this week and she an AMAZING dancer. I know I shouldn't compare myself to other people and I should measure my improvements from myself, but I am so jealous. I want to be that good. My turns are coming along, but I have trouble spotting. I honestly believe that if you do not learn how to spot when you are a young child (which of course I didn't) that it is practically impossible to learn it as an adult. I guess I should be happy with my skill level given that I didn't have any formal dance training until I was 23, but I just hate the fact that I could be so good if I had started as a kid. I am so getting Maddie into ballet as soon as she is 2 years old.
