VII The desire of Man being Infinite the possession is Infinite & himself Infinite. ↗

I had certain physical limitations that made me change the choreography for myself or made me more interested in choreography only rather than dancing. I have never been a person who wanted to just dance. I have always been interested in developing for other people. ↗
