Live with a dancing spirit. The stars in the heavens are dancing through space, the earth never ceases to spin.
All life is dancing; the trees with the wind, the waves on the sea, the birds ,the fish ,all are performing their own dance of life.
Every living thing is dancing, and you must keep dancing too, for the rest of your life.

Ballet Shoes
I have loads of pairs, but most loved are the first of many.
My first ballet soft flats, which in fact!....... were not soft, but
extremely hard. Made of pink leather,
that had my feet working over time to get a little bit of bend out of them.
My first Pointe/toe shoes, shiny again pink, but this time
satin with all the accessories that have to be attached with them to help,
these shoes.
Help, pain, stress, joy all
the same thing when it come to these shoes. Pretty but warning can bring pain
depending on how your foot is shaped?
Today you could buy even more help for
your toes including Lambs wool, fleecy pads for toes, and pouches for the Ouch,
cushions / pads for your toes; they even come in the form of gel, suede and
silicone. One can get bunion guards and a ray of toe tapes, ribbons, elastic,
darning trend, carrying bags plus resin.
Well! I never! I’m surprise!....... one, can get the shoe on after
that lot.
