Traveled...Small Town Cities...Big Dreams... Toronto to  New York City...Everywhere In Between

A year ago, well ten months ago, I set my eyes on NYC. 

Convinced that I was going to spend the rest of my days, dancing. Something I so love to do, and thinking NYC was the dance capital of the world. 

To myself I said, let me try and go see whats there for me. I learnt that the arts are a fantastic part of the hustle and bustle in NYC.  I also learnt that many artists feel that same vibrancy and they celebrate their roots there, in this cultural mecca. Before I left, I painted my hair blue, as I often do. MY FAVOURITE COLOUR, BLUE. One that signals wisdom, and reverence for spirit. I left NYC because someone stole the keys to BMW. hahaha, right? Not a good reason, but that was the reason. When I began this blog, my colour theory instructor, her name was Julie, she said "Oh your doing a blog, thats great...Just don't write anything negative..." 

You know what I realize in my travels, is that the human mind loves to cling to negativity. It actually finds sorrow more familiar than joy. We have to train our minds to be grateful, and to really embrace the positivity in the many aspects of our lifestyle. There have been studies in science to back this theory, and it's not something I just made up. 

So why, than, are we so quick to avoid what is natural to us? Why the effort to see beyond the familiar? 

I juxtapose if the familiar pathway to our brain is sorrow, than what of this joys being born from the same tears and pain? Because the duality exists ...there isn't one without the other. And yet ...so much emphasis is on this module thought that says be happy, think positive ...

I don't know what to tell you, all I know, this blog, I started to tell you about my journey through doors that I would open. Has become a story of many doors that closed to me. ahhh, so the adage 'when one closes, two opens...' 

For now, a brief video on how I was able to do my hair for that trip to NYC.
