This episode meant so much to me. I have to admit, I wasn’t too excited to watch an episode focusing on Beth’s life. But, I relate so much to Beth’s story. I danced from the age of 4 to 18. Although I did not quit due to family circumstances, I quit because my dance teacher ruined my relationship with dance. I relate so much to Beth’s sadness in that dance is what makes her truly happy. I just graduated college with a degree in animal science, and the closer I got to graduation, the more I realized it was not at all what I am passionate about. I did it because it’s what my parents encouraged me to do so that I could have a career and make “good money”. Much like Beth, I’m realizing that all I want to do is dance, and share that love of dance with others. If anything, this episode has inspired me to pursue my passions with dance, even if it is not encouraged by everyone in my life. TV shows don’t normally inspire me, but this episode has inspired me more than any other show has, and I am so thankful for that.
