Day 25: May 6, 2017
Challenge: Attend a dance class
This was another challenge to push me out of my comfort zone. I love dancing, and I'm pretty good at it for someone of my vastness. However, I don't really enjoy dancing in front of others because I'm terrified of what they'll think of all my bits jiggling around. A community theatre that I have participated with over the last few years was having some cheap classes, though, with people and instructors that I knew, so I decided it would be a good place to start. I went, I danced, and I didn't care what anyone thought of me. And that's the lesson that I have been trying to learn for practically my whole life: it doesn't matter what someone else thinks! I need to be be brave enough to live joyfully. I need to do the things that make me feel good about my body. My body is amazing! Sure, we've had our ups and downs, but my body has never completely failed me. It gets me where I need to go, and helps me do the things that I need to do. It is strong and powerful, and (dare I say it?) beautiful.
Dancing is good for the soul. Even if I only do it in the privacy of my own living room, I promise myself that I will dance more!
