Not just ballet
Someone recently asked me why Russia was the greatest country in the world. At first I was confused and thought of it as a joke. Then ideas starting popping in my head quickly. It must because of the history Russia has of treating its own people and its satellite-countries. No, maybe it’s the rigid pursuing of freedom of speech. Or racial tolerance uncompared to any other country in the world. Fatigued with that storm of ideas, I could only think of ballet, dancers floating on the stage like snowflakes. Now, if I only had a English to Russian translation to convey all this to my curious russian friend.
