Went to IU Ballet’s Spring Ballet last night and it was gorgeous, and such a delight — humans do that!! They put years of their lives — so much of their childhood — into very VERY! disciplined practice. Building technique, flexibility, strength, and artistry.

And goodness, is it a visual demonstration of what can be achieved with trust in highly collaborative teaming among humans who are prepared to play their roles in each movement that takes trust to learn, and repeat, and perform!

Going to see orchestras and choirs is my way of staying grounded in this nowadays. Should check out a ballet too. I wish more people could fully experience this sort of work, because I think it's the best way to clearly see what collaboration can accomplish. Research into vaccines or elementary particles is so much harder for a layperson to fully appreciate.
