I enjoy juggling. I wanted to juggle for years before I started juggling everyday. I remember the time I read a small article in a magazine about how to juggle. I got 3 tennis balls and tried to do what the article said.
I could not juggle at all. I was convinced that I could not juggle. There were people who could juggle and I was not one of those people. I was sad I am sure.
Fast forward to roughly a year ago. I wanted to juggle real bad. I had no juggling balls. So I ripped pages from old magazines I had and formed the pages into juggling balls. After first i used two pages per juggling ball, then I added another page for a total of 3 magazine pages for juggling ball.
I did not want to buy juggling balls because I did not know if I could juggle or even like juggling.
I also read a book about juggling. And I watched a juggling tutorial video. The book I read talked about cascade, reverse cascade and other types of juggling. Before I had only thought there was one way to juggle. I was wrong. One thing I saw in the book that I want to do is juggle on a unicycle. That looks fun.
It took me a long time to get good a juggling even one juggling ball. I practiced hard. Then I added another ball so I was juggling two balls. But, I only juggled the balls once then stopped. I could not keep the 2 balls going. I could not get my heard around how to keep the balls moving.
Eventually I got to the point where I could get two balls going. I still have trouble. I can now juggled 3 balls. Though not that good. Its so hard for me to juggle.
I like juggling because all I need are juggling balls and enough room to juggle them. Nothing more. And It keeps me moving around. Exercise.
I think it would be fun one day to enter a juggling competition. And also I want to be able to keep at least 3 juggling balls up in the air for say five minutes or 10 minutes or an hour. An hour might be pushing it.
Juggling is fun. I am glad I decided to juggle. I may never be the best. If I am never a good juggler at least I have a fun hobby.
So what if the juggling balls drop to the floor all the time. As long as juggling is fun I will keep juggling.
