This Sunday!!! Don't miss this incredible show that Bellydance Evolution is performing right here in Arlington MA! Jillina Carlano and her team are inspiring, professional, creative, entertaining and technically pristine! They have been largely inspirational to my own training and work as a choreographer. I can't recommend them highly enough. This show tours all over the globe and we are so fortunate to have them here in the Boston area! You don't want to miss this. https://www.facebook.com/christina.ackley.7/posts/10155163422058878
Inspiration is not the exclusive privilege of poets and artists. There is, there has been, there will always be a certain group of people whom inspiration visits. It's made up of all those who've consciously chosen their calling and do their job with love and imagination. It may include doctors, teachers, gardeners --I could list a hundred more professions. Their work becomes one continuous adventure as long as they manage to keep discovering new challenges in it. Difficulties and setbacks never quell their curiousity. A swarm of new questions emerges from every problem that they solve. Whatever inspiration is, it's born from a continuous "I don't know".
