Dancing in life...
Just finished watching the vcd 'Shall We Dance' starring Richard Gere and J.Lo. Somehow there was two parts of the show that moved me to tears.. Hmm.. I may seem a bit overboard getting so emotional over a show like this.. but people usually only tear of scenes when the good guys & loved ones pass on but in this show.. it was just the words that really moved me.. pure words without the need for actions and visualisation.. just the words.. i hope u get what i am trying to get at..
Basically, it was the scene that Mrs John Clark (Richard Gere aka Mr John Clark's wife) counter the saying that people get married for passion. Here goes... People get married because they want a witness to their lives, to witness the ups and downs, goods and bads and know that their lives would not go unnoticed. Yeap.. that is probably the gist of it. I thought that this is pretty true.. I would definitely wanna be a witness to my life and be a witness to the lives of my loved ones, knowing that all that I've done in life was for a meaning and there was someone with me through life's every moment. I wouldn't want my life to go unnoticed, feels meaningless isn' it.
I guess the link of me and the show is my love for dancing.. I've tried jazz, hip hop, chinese dance and adult ballet.. trust me.. i love all of them and always feel that it is an art that always represented the person that i am.. (even though i am not a good dancer) hip hop for the funky side of me.. ballet the sweet girlish side.. chinese dance the graceful one, rumba the sensual one and so on.
And life is just like a stage with different dances being performed on it. The happy moments are like performing in front of a large audience being appreciated or like winning a dance competition when the downs are perhaps failing to master a dance or falling on stage. Your dance partner is just like your true love.. being there through all the moments, sharing both the good and bad times and knowing that he/she will always be there to pull you through, picking u up after a bad fall.
I guess I've already found my dance partner.. and perhaps he may be the very one to waltz me down the isle.. =)
