Ballet

Last weekend, I went to see a rehearsal for ballet performance for kids.
It was fun to see my daughters' performance though it appeared not so much different from some comical performances when they did at kindergarten few years before.

But some of elder girls in the class show some high quality performance.
I am totally amateur about Ballet, I have never seen real ballet performance.

So I have no back ground knowledge nor right to criticize.

But I was quite impressed they are crossing the stage from corner to corner with very beautiful manner! Crossing by Jumping, turning, posing, combination of these and others.

Usually we move some distance from one place to the other by walking or running. It depends on how much we are hurrying. I guess in Ballet, they integrated that method of moving into a kind of ultimate manner.

Now the purpose is no more reaching to the destination, but moving itself.
How to cross the distance.

And when we think back about our lives, those are just like crossing the distance as whole life time. Some have some destination as a goal. But that is just an additional for entire lives.

In that meaning, I imagine Ballet could represent lives by showing How we can cross distance as LIFE.
