Life moves on

Recently I was a part of a reality show. I got to sing, dance and act in it. A mother of a seven year old, for me it was a God-sent platform. The last stages got over last Saturday. Now I am back to my job and the daily grind. But my heart and my body still longs to sing, dance and continue to give vent to the cre4ativity within. More than half of the population in the world engross in doing what they really dont want to do, being with someone they really dont want to be and living the way which they actually cant relate to. Why is it so difficult to break free and breathe easy? Why is it the we who have been chained by the societal strictures are not able to live and do what we really want to do???

Moving on is one of the best things in life. It is an act of accepting our fate in the past, leading us to lead a different kind of life after. Well, we have the will to make choices for ourselves and for our family. We should decide things fervently and act wisely all the time.

It is difficult to break free because we have to pay the bills for one; and because we have expectaions placed on us by our families and society in general that can sometimes be very hard to defy. It sounds like you had a great experience and no matter what, this experience will remain with you always. Maybe you can now find a happy medium and still pursue your dreams outside of your current responsibilities for now? Not many people are in a position to turn their passions into a livelihood but by being able to keep yourself in both worlds somehow, you may get to the point where you get the chance to embrace your dream AND make a living out of it as well. I am sure that those around you would be far more supportive of your decisions and life changes if you were able to prove that you can make it work over time. The key is to keep everyone happy and your head above water for now until you can make the move! Good luck and always remember that we can achieve anything if we truly believe that we will!
