Everyone has their own talents -

their personal niche, ya might say. Photography is not everyone's.We erupted in a stream of laughter after we asked a genial gent to snap a snapshot for us before attending A Chorus Line at the Pantages in Hollywood,which happened to be an awe-instilling anecdote of relentless dancers-turned-dreamers striving to establish their nook in this world, one jete at a time. 'Twas an expectedly spectacular musical extravaganza in utmost Broadway fanfare, but what pulled at our heartstrings most was the story's relatability. We exited the regally ostentatious theater convinced that A Chorus Line was a metaphor for our lives. We haven't the knack for pirouettes, arabesques, and dance-savviness, but dude, we, in our volatile and malleable early-20s stage, wanna hone our skills and pinpoint our vocational destination on this globe just as much as the colorful characters do. And as the days pitter patter by, we pray with hope that we're one step closer to ascertaining that calling. And that we come out of it with a treasury of tales to tell.

'Cause I mean, who isn't a sucker for brilliant stories? True, there're far too few gems to be found via the monstrosity we dub the mass media. Forget the fluff and junk on the tube these days that encourage us to postulate our society is perpetually doomed to Jersey Shore-esque absurdity. We're in dire need of titillating tales that convict and inspire. Luckily, you can help make that happen. Watch a dear friend's submission to Oprah's "Your Own Show" contest
