Rueda 2 Lesson 1
Seriously, factors like poor short term memory, poor limbs coordination and lack of practise combine to make one a lousy dancer. Which is of course what is happening to me in my Rueda class. Seriously cannot make it. Got to put in more practise time which unfortuantely is not possible as, for now, i do not know any of my classmate yet. A fool in making, i say.
Got to persevere, must at least be proficient in Rueda.
Thinking back, i sucked big time when i started first my salsa lesson which continued all the way to Beginner 2 lessons. Now, although i'm still not quite happy with my "lead" but at least now i can still dance in public with quiet confidence. Still have a lot to polish up of course.
I guess it is human nature to feel like a loser when everyone else is doing better you even though others took the same amount of time or even less time to master the same thing. And then most people would imagining that the others are either laughing at him or look down on him.
All this "loser" feeling is due to one's ego to either want to compete / show off / impress those around you. Of course, I'm still a long way off to finding Tao but i'll work at it. Although i may be a bit of a smart ass, i can never be a genius. So my only solution to all this is to put in lots of hard work and persevere. It might never work out well in the end, but at least i'll enjoy this "journey of self-discovery" and try to strengthen my mind against all the ridicule directed at me, perceived or otherwise, or the shame from my inner demons.
Going to meet some old secondary school friends at JP now. So here's something to think about : why do anyone need to be validated, either by the society or by oneself. you are just you. the idea of worth shouldn't be there in the first place.
