Yes true that! Good idea, maybe something about the wistfulness of forgotten, un requitted & joyfully abandoned love! It could be fun writing!! Thanks!!
I came to read this first as Natasha restacked the second part of your essay.
"I still remember the utter scorn with which they consigned my dancing to the proverbial bin. And ever since, I have never attempted to dance. I am sure there is more to this; I am unfairly loading the entire blame on my sisters. But what the hell, that’s what siblings do!" I was in exact same place except that my 2 brothers hid in a corner and giggled at me dancing my heart off, oblivious that I was being watched! But when I did, that was the end of my dancing! Ajay, I look forward to reading the next part!
The trek anecdote deserves a short story of its own. It had a lovely bittersweet feel. :)
