I think its about time for me to hang up my dancing shoes. Ive thought about this many times and on bad nights Ive threatned to quit a few times but really deep down I love my job(most of the time!!). But Im ready to move on to the next stepping stone in my life. I miss spending every night with my husband and putting my kids to bed.
So Ive thought long and hard as to how I am going to quit. Because everytime I think about it theres this little voice in me that say not to that I cant afford to quit that its to soon. But I know its just the voice of the addiction that comes with dancing. The addiction to the money to the stage and everything else good and bad that comes with this job. Despite how we complain we love it and most importantly we need it in a way. Im trying to quiet this voice but its hard.
Ive thought that maybe I should kindof slowly cut down a night here and there for the next month just to kindof wean myself off the cash flow. Thats my question to all of the retired dancers out there. How do you do it and make a clean break without feeling like your missing something. Wow I dont even know if that makes any sense.
Well thanks for any advice that you may have!!
