I have a high. I mean every time I have danced, the whole world was the stage, and I was in control of it, and there was a form and a ritual and yet it was spontaneous, and life didn't matter after that. Either of joy or pain. To dance ballet is to use oneself to express something beyond oneself. Any sort of pretension induces mediocrity in art and life alike.
Bodies never lie.
These are things that we need for survival. For me, dance is a nutrient. It's my nourishment. If someone else understands, good. If not, no matter.
