salsa

.wherever i am placed.

Have you ever been in this state of being simply satisfied with the way things are at the moment....even if it's like not doing anything new, starting anything great or meeting new groups of friends?

It is probably a combination of complacency (haha), contentment or just totally trusting God, enjoying being a spectator and of course, not taking all the programmes and people you've started for granted. In a way it's called "Keeping inventory and taking stock", mending the fences, tending a garden...

Then you will have the time to take a deep breath, look around and really observe or notice the faces around you, who are soo interesting even if they don't think they're that fantastic.

The saying goes "Bloom wherever you are planted", or another one "Do whatever u can, with whatever you have, wherever you are".

I got to capture dance in its purest form at the dance hang out today. Maybe it was really my own perception this time really observing people. There was a whole gang from NTU who came down and were practising with their instructor. hahaha. their moves weren't so pro but they were all so cute! It was really cool watching those who truly appreciated it versus those who just danced to have fun (that's good too), versus those who danced to look good (a.k.a show off lol), or danced to socialise....etc. Talking to people who actually go the extra mile in really pursuing it professionally made the difference too.
