I've been dancing the last three nights and despite the fact that it's had an adverse effect on my productivity, it has undoubtedly managed to save my sanity for this week. I have so much fun dancing that I don't know how I've been able to live without it for so long.

At the same time, it causes me an undue amount of stress. You see, I love dancing. But I'm not that great at it. Or maybe I do have some sort of aptitude for it but I worry too much. I keep wondering why I can't get certain moves when others can. And maybe I should just let it go. I'm not saying that I should stop striving for perfection in dancing, just that I should stop obsessing so much about it and just relax and do the best I can. Sooner or later, it'll come to me with practice.

In the same way, I should stop worrying what others think about me when I dance. So what if I make a mistake? If I'm a good person to dance with, I don't have to concentrate so much on what I'm doing and whether I'm making any mistakes. I should just chill and go with the flow.

I want so desperately to be good at the dances I do, and to have style too - my own style that is.

So, God, this is my prayer. The wish that I would actually go all the way to the Novena to request for. This is my love and passion, Lord. Help me to give it my all.
