Changing the Dance


Have you ever been in a dance you wanted to change?

Have you been part of that dance all of your life?

Has the person been dancing along with you?

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to change the rhythm and the steps?
To move completely differently, alongside another person.

To discover together a new way of being, of relating, of communicating. Of dancing?

It definitely takes courage to shake it up. It takes guts to change it and courage to receive the change.

But imagine the possibilities if you were to do it.
Imagine what it might bring you.
Imagine where these steps might lead you.

Maybe..you might actually be free.
You might free up the dance partner too.
Maybe taking a risk might be the best thing that ever happened to you.
And maybe you will succeed in changing their moves
And maybe you will not.
You might even fail.
But your dance will have changed anyways. You will be different.

You will feel complete.
You will feel peaceful.
And so will they even if it takes a while.

There is nothing wrong with dancing differently, or wanting to.

If you change, you are brave.
If you change, the world shifts with you.
What you always knew will suddenly be different.
And different ,although hard, is often wonderful.

Good for you.
