I was home a few weeks ago and while I was there I attended my sister’s dance audition. She was trying out for our local theater’s performance of High School Musical. As I watched her getting prepared in the lobby I wondered what was going through her mind. Was she nervous or excited? Will her dreams be crushed if she doesn’t get the part? I often wonder if the pressure that is attached to dance auditions is the cause for many dancers to quit their destiny. Now don’t get me wrong, I do believe there are certain cases in which people are in a delusional world thinking they are destined to dance when in reality they have no rhythm whatsoever but that is rarely the case. So let’s take my sister for instance. She has an amazing talent and I believe dance is what she’s meant to do, but if she doesn’t get this audition will that lead her to quit her dreams? I can’t really answer my own question. All I can hope for is that she does her best. If she doesn’t get the part, it’s not the end of the world but I really pray for her sake that she’s strong enough to see that.
