dance

I am always amazed by dancers. They have such a unique, physical talent. Last night I watched So You Think You Can Dance. Those dancers, just at the beginning of their careers, are incredible. They can do things I could never dream of even as a small child with the world laid out in front of me. The best part of watching is imagining myself in their place. What a wonderful feeling it would be to move and turn and leap!

The other thing that impresses me about dance is that the music and the movement can make me feel various emotions. My favorite dance last night was the group dance at the beginning of the show. They were all dressed in white and doing a jazz/African peace (I meant piece, but I like that my dictation software chose the alternate spelling). Peace and hope were exactly what I felt as I watched.

Thank you dancers for sharing your talent and making me feel good!

bring on the joy!


I like these words by Neale Donald Walsch:

How much joy are you experiencing in this moment?

How much joy are you bringing to this moment?

The joy you experience will be the joy you bring.

I'm usually pretty good at this.  Wishing it was always so easy.
