Dance therapy

It's been a year since I last blogged. Unlike when I was younger, I now feel uncomfortable sharing about my life in the cyber space. In fact I also removed my profile pic. Shall come up with another one at a later date! Times now are different where your every move is scrutinized by the public. It somehow reminded me of Jesus where how His every move during a dinner was watched closely by the Pharisees. 

Anyway, back to the topic of dance therapy. 2014 was a year I went through one of the toughest times in my whole life. Many transitions and challenges in almost every aspect of my life. I became depressed and turned suicidal. It was also during this period of time that I have never felt more alone. Friends I thought would be there for me claimed tt they would support me but never check in on me except once or twice. After the pity party, I decided to just do sth about it rather than wait for ppl to validate my self worth. I threw myself into dance and boy, was I glad I did that. I thoroughly enjoy the sometimes punishing sessions. My teacher pushes us to achieve more than what we think we could. :)

As I'm rebuilding my life, there are a few life lessons that I took home with. One, relationships, whether romantic or not, do not last. I used to go all sentimental n sad when I lost a friendship. Now I have learned not to attach too much value in it. Just enjoy it while it lasts. If it doesn't last, no point crying over spilt milk. Move on! Two, independence is much needed in a woman. Wen your frens are in a different phase and have no time to check in on you, what do you do? Mop over it? No, just move on. Though they won't be your close frens anymore but nevertheless thank them for being part of your life at one time. Three, be grateful to those who helped u at your lowest point. They are a Godsend. Four, never give up on what you have for anyone. What you are and have defines you. 

So that concludes what I have learnt for the past year. It was a bittersweet experience but I'm sure what I went through has a purpose. To the readers, dun give up and keep on maintaining a sunshine attitude towards the adversities. You will get through just like me! :)
