The Dance

Music that is felt to the very depths and core of who you are, unlocking the mysteries of life, allowing you to reach where you thought it wasn’t possible and taking flight with your wings, is the dance that we all yearn for.  It is a gift bestowed to all if we choose to follow the melody and rhythm that calls to us.

The push and pull of the dance that is felt is neither jarring nor jolting when your heart is leading.  It moves us through light and dark, joy and sorrow, love and anger, with a serendipitous glide that is exhilarating and palpitating.  Both are equal yet present such different views of who we are and who we are called to be.

This is the dance of life. 

Life is not meant to leave you stuck in sorrow, lost in anger or blind in darkness.  It is the constant movement of yin and yang -  that is the dance.  It touches both sides of who we innately are, for us to understand, feel empathy, and hear the whisper of the unconscious knowing that feeds the soul and allows us to spring into our next step. 

The beautiful rhythm of each movement carries us across and around the dance floor, spinning through challenges in one moment, and then leading us to pause and enjoy our sweet reverie, suspending time, soaking in the views, allowing our heart to feel the pulse of the present moment and know that we are exactly where we are meant to be. 

Fall in love with the dance, with all parts of who you are.  They are all beautiful.  The darkness allows for the unearthing of the enchanting and mesmerizing beauty within.

The knots and the unevenness in the dancefloor do not need to inhibit the dance – they enhance it.  They can make it challenging, but do not let it defeat you because the overall feel of the dance, your inner song, carries you through the difficulties and opens the door to appreciation and gratitude.

This is the dance of life.

So, go out and create your own dance.  Give your hand to your heart allowing it to sing and colour your life with all the aspects of this human experience.  Move and shake your way through each day, knowing your dance partner will always hold space for you, even through the dark times.  You are never alone. 

You are the dance.
