Its gonna be 40 years from now and you are going to wish you did things differently. Tomorrow is going to be too late.
This will aply for things that i wish would happen, and also for things that i wish it didnt.
I cant win honestly.
Darlene Parent (née Gilbert) skating in pointe shoe skates. 1950s or 60s? This video gives me several different conflicting thoughts:
“Wow! That’s so pretty! She looks like a ballerina on a music box.” “Those must be so difficult to balance in. How does she skate in them?” “It must take a lot of strength to skate in those for very long.” “Her poor feet!”
It’s hard to find much more information about this video, but apparently the skates were her own invention, and she had an ironsmith make the blades and reinforce the shoes. She practiced ballet for many years and skated with the Ice Theatre of New York; I don’t know if the skates were made for a show or for kicks or what. She later became a skating coach and is apparently still teaching.

Dasha gave up watching Justin skate for the mere possibility of seeing the woman she loves again
