This is because it is a result of the well being that we are feeling and causes happiness that generates a strong relief for our mental health.

The Stage Manager in the play Our Town serves as a "narrator"; he (or she, in some productions) explains the action to the audience, and since there is little in the way of set decoration, his commentary takes the place of some stage direction. He is a conduit between the action of the play and the audience, at times breaking the "fourth wall" by speaking directly to the audience, and at other times participating in the action. His role is similar to the role of the Chorus in ancient classical Greek drama, commenting on the action to help clarify some of the dramatic elements for the audience and helping to move the plot along.
By definition, a gerund is a verb that ends with -ing.
With this in mind, we can see that "dancing" and "writing" are gerunds. If we need to change them into infinitives, then we need to know what infinitives are.
