Everyone Needs Some Time To Themselves.

Naturally Enough When I Was A Young Dancer, I Was Terribly Anxious To Get Ahead, And To Get Ahead Quickly. I Was Impatient With All Those Older People Who Talked Of The Long Grind To The Top, Who Turned Me Down For Jobs I Knew I Could Do.

I Have Always Found It Difficult To Wait For Things - Whether It Was To See My Father Or Sailor Brother, Alan, Again After Their Long Sea Trips, Or The Chance Of A Better Job, Or Even New Curtains.

But If We Learn To Think Of It As Anticipation, As Learning, As Growing, If We Think Of The Time We Spend Waiting For The Big Things Of Life As An Opportunity Instead Of A Passing Of Time, What Wonderful Horizons Open Out!

If We Fix A Goal And Work Towards It, Then We Are Never Just Passing Time.

Everyone Needs Some Time To Themselves.
