Fame is knowing you would do anything in your power to make your foot point a little farther. It's knowing that you danced hard when you come out of class with blisters on your ankles, and your abs are burning, with sweat dripping from your messed up hair. It's knowing that your feet are the toughest part of your body. It's knowing that when you're walking away from a jerk who says dance is a stupid little girl sport with no actual work out involved, while thinking to yourself "Yeah, and I bet you can do twenty super-sose, and three peakay turns in a row!" It's knowing and understanding that you have a gift that not alot of people have, then when handed a gold trophee and seeing all of your team mates crying and realizing you did it! Nobody will ever know the feeling of a dancers heart and how they feel when stepping into class every week and knowing that you can do it and take it whatever it might be! Only true dancers will know what that special feeling is when you're on the stage, and only true dancers will know that feeling if they persue their gift.
