Motivational Monday

Monday morning... a ton to do today... must start with a run!
It's sort of like my daily prayer... I feel more centered with it. 
It doesn't have to be far, but it does have to be done!
 
Here are some motivational quotes and images for you today.

This year has been busy, I've grown in new areas and as you put something higher on the priority list, something else gets bumped down. 
This year that thing has been dance.  I'm not teaching.  I said I wanted this to be my year to just take class, aaaaand, I'm not even doing that regularly.
 
Truth be told, my soul aches for dance, and not just a dance class at the local studio.
I miss full body movement and expression.  I miss breathing hard and sweating harder.
I miss the moment of still, the speaking of music, the feeling of satisfaction when the combo ends, the desire to do it again.  I miss the drive and push.  I miss being the student.  I miss modern dance.  I miss the artistry, passion, stretch and the feeling of being so lost in a moment over and over again.
 
With the new year here I need to be much more dedicated to my ballet class.  It's not quite filling the list of things above, but it is moving and it is challenging.  It's better than nothing, for my technique.  I've been such a flake, but it's a new year, I'll be there.
