i wanted to just dance.
going back to my passion is but the greatest thing that happened to me this year. way back 2004 i had my claimed final performance at the philamlife theater (collab concert with the orange core and other schools)... which up to now i can still remember was the worst performance i ever had my entire life. i wasn't able to perform the best of what i can give.. my "dance" reflected what was in me - my worries, my problems, my fears, my anger, my hate.. which made me claim that day, the end of my "dancing career".
little did i know that i'd go back to where i first started. back to my passion where i know i'd be able to pour my heart out to, and just be simply me. and then there i was. stepping on to the platform i left. on to that place where He first sent me.
year 2008. i decided to join again the summer funshop. just because i wanted to dance. and so there i was... stepping into that new place with the same class, but with faces and names i'm much unfamiliar with. gladly, there're few of them who i knew then. :) and of course, session days made me learn more and know my new friends. :)

this summer wasn't all about technicalities - steps, grooves, beats, rhythm. but it's also about relationships, camaraderies built.
the Lord's been good, for He has blessed me with people who continue to push me to continue on with what i love doing. for my twin, if it weren't for your pangungulit and your encouragement to me, hindi na dapat ako tutuloy. but you made me see my reason, my purpose for this passion.. Him. :)
"coz Your love's too much for my heart to contain, joy too much that my feet won't refrain..
so i dance like the rain on the roof tell my soul that my spirit's on the loose
don't know if anyone would understand, feels like an angel's got a hold of my hand..
so i dance..."
summer 2008 i love.
