This one will always have a permanent spot in my TILT lists, no matter how frustrated I can get with myself post-rehearsal. Come September, it will have been a year since I started salsa dancing, and as trite and dramatic as this may sound, I truly believe it&#8217;s changed my life. And me, for that matter. I&#8217;ve met some of the most beautiful group of people through it, and have been inspired by some of the most incredible dancers out there. I&#8217;m learning the art\u2014and learning more about myself\u2014as I go (salsa?) along, and so far, it&#8217;s been equally exhilarating as it is trying. This whole\u00a0<em>thing,\u00a0<\/em>for lack of a better word, couldn&#8217;t have come at a better time; this only solidifies my belief that everything happens for a reason, and that people come into your life when you&#8217;re ready for them or need something the most.\u00a0But aside from finding an entirely new passion to focus upon after hours spent at the office (writing, which is another thing I love!), I can&#8217;t put into words how blessed I feel to know that someone could have so much faith in who you are and your abilities. It&#8217;s pretty incredible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 37px; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\">Just this past week I had both the best and worst rehearsals. There was a moment when I just wanted to cry because I was that furious and frustrated at myself for not being able to do something right, but you know what? I wouldn&#8217;t have it any other way. I wouldn&#8217;t\u2014and couldn&#8217;t\u2014move forward if I didn&#8217;t feel challenged. I wouldn&#8217;t realize that I need to change my perspective, that (as my partner keeps telling me) I need to re-shape the way I view myself.
