Someone asked me recently if the new studio took up more of my time. I had to explain that I'd love for the new studio to take more of my time, that I'd love to have more time to give it. I love being in the space; I would love even more if the studio could be the first place I went in the morning to begin my day. Right now it's a challenge to balance The Day Job and the energy it requires (some days it takes more than others...) with The House, The Dog, The Friends, The Other Commitments... with the time I'd like to be working in The Studio.
I realize that, in the grand scheme of things, I've only been there a few months and have done quite a lot of settling in. There are currently two activities, Tai Chi and Bellydancing, that are using the space, with more to come. But I get impatient, and want to go-go-go and do-do-do (and it's odd that those 2 words don't rhyme...). Learning, in many ways, to appreciate process -- damn it!
Patience is a virtue? It sounds like your studio is making progress. I'm sure it's bound to become a little slice of NYC energy.
ReplyDeleteCool Studio! Wish you had more time! What I used to do when time was an issue was get up at 4:00am and sneak in the extra morning hours that way. Then who cares if your tired the rest of the time.
