🩰🌃
I don’t know anything about ballet, but I enjoy watching it and respect dancers highly. I enjoy going to the theater in my going to the theater clothes and sitting in that dark, cold room hypnotized by beautiful bodies and their superhuman athleticism. Sometimes it can be overwhelming. Sometimes I leave during intermission.

I started taking ballet classes and it helped so much with flexibility and movement. I jump around so much on stage and I feel like my balance has improved, I feel more stretched out. The classical piano music gets my brain to instantly unwind. It's hard, but rewarding. And you get to wear cute outfits.

Recently went to the NYC ballet and it was fantastic. Nothing better than doing an Old Person Activity. If I’m the youngest person in the room, I know I’m in for a banger. We should all be doing more activities where they send you a physical ticket in the mail.

I dance poorly; I am somehow fundamentally ungraceful, and knowing I will never be excellent has made it easier for me to really enjoy and build habits around dance. I’m taking ballet now, I took ballroom and flamenco in college, it’s a lot of fun, and an added benefit is that dance is one of the most effective forms of movement for improving mental health and wellbeing.

What a resource… At any given time I will have several Wiki tabs open. At the moment, I’m reading articles on Boethius, POSIWID, Counting Cards and the Cornball Express (Roller Coaster). Admittedly, I have never donated a dime to this site.

And forgiving. As soon as you recognize that you’re in the wrong, regardless of if you feel sorry, apologize. And as soon as a hatchet is surrendered, bury it. It doesn’t have to be perfect. Ask for mercy, ask for grace. Seventy times seven. Remember how much you’ve been forgiven. Make it right with your friend, with your enemy, with yourself, with God.

Piero Piccioni was a prolific film score composer and, for me, the greatest of all time. He’s gained some recent popular interest, but really listen to these arrangements. His discography is inexhaustible but not much is known about him. Some of my favorites are “Canone Classica” and “Magic” but really anything with “Theme” in the title.
