| Introduction | I'm madly in love with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. I'm a bit of a nerd. I'm melancholic choleric but I like to laugh. I spent 2.5 years with the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration in Alabama--Mother Angelica's nuns. I loved it, and I still am totally a Franciscan at heart... but it wasn't my vocation. So now I am a college student trying to figure out what is, and to allow the way I've grown in the monastery to influence way I see the world, and maybe somehow share what that experience has taught me with the people the Lord crosses my path with. A former contemplative discovering the sacred in the mundane. |

What would you name your ballet inspired by the sight of children leaping through a garden sprinkler?
Probably Children Leaping Through a Garden Sprinkler. I'm not very creative... but with a subject like that, who needs to be creative?
