Dancing My Troubles Away 💃 My Dream Job || #4

Today I was so excited to write about this topic of day 4 of the Blogging Challenge: writing about my dream job. So much so, that I was thinking about what to type in and what would go where, during my "day job" 😅 The only thing standing is my way right now, is my (you guessed it) perfectionism, because this topic is very dear to me 🙈

Ever since I could remember, there was only one thing I wanted to be and that is being a ballerina or a professional dancer. In my previous post I wrote about, how I would allow myself be put in the background; to not be a nuisance and just be there.

It was only when on stage, when performing before hundreds of people, that I allowed myself to shine, to be seen and where my nervousness would disappear. It was in those instances I felt like I was allowed to tell stories, share how I feel and what I thought through the art of dance. By performing I was also able to take people on this journey with me, away from daily life and stress. It was and still is my way to get out of my head for a bit and "escape" the daily hassle. When angered or sad or also happy, I will put on some songs and just let it all go. After such a workout, I feel much better. It's the increase of the dopamine levels researchers say, that plays a big part in the "happy feel".

And now you may wonder what happened to my "dream job". I believe that life goes as is should, and not always according to how you may have planned. I'm not a ballerina, nor a professional dancer, and that's ok, because I am happy. It's not the end of the world for me and I have so much more to offer than telling stories through the art of movement. There are also many ways to help others in dealing with their daily hassles, aside from taking them on those fantastical journeys.

To conclude this post, I want to support those who feel down or lost, because they didn't get their dream job for whatever reason. It's also not the end of the world for you. We're all people with many dimensions to us, who have so much to offer. Even if your set of skills were trained for just that one job, there's room to grow and learn new skills. I believe in you 💪

So that's it for Day 4. Chasse into the backstage! 💃
