Bottom line is that your capacity to endure emotional lows also increases your capacity to enjoy the highs. However, don't let your emotions completely overwhelm you. Learn to feel the lows and put them into your dance, as well as the highs. Use this opportunity to enhance your "feeling". Anguish is no less a feeling than joy or love. Some day you'll be the rock-solid finished product, but until then, every performer goes through this.
"Is not the flute that soothes your spirit the very wood that was hollowed with knives?" -- Kahlil Gibran.
In essence, you are the piece of wood right now. You have to learn to enjoy the process of becoming the flute.

Isn't it amazing..
Anguish.. is no less a feeling than love or joy.
