"To dance is to give oneself to the rhythms of all life."
Dr. Maya V. Patel
"So tell me Joshua," the deep voice rumbled out at the dancer. "When can I convince you to leave this place for somewhere better?"
"Lance, there is no better place than ABT." JC felt as though he had said the phrase a million times and he probably had, but Lance would never let the subject go. "I love it here."
"You could love it somewhere else too." He smiled. "You weren't meant to live in a world of structured dance, Joshua."
"This is my world," he reminded his old friend. "This is where I live. Dancing is what I breathe in. I can't leave this."
"I'm not telling you to stop dancing. I'm just telling you to live it somewhere else."
"Where?" JC challenged. "What better company is there than ABT?"
Lance smiled. "Your own."
