ALone... laughing. If I had to really ponder the word, that's a deepie. Because we dance around so much in life... rather than walking to or through it.

When I read the poem, it seemed that it's about ... not overcoming, necessarily, but smiling through pain, finding joy in the midst of pain, deciding to be joyous when you feel wounded beyond healing. Or maybe that's my take because of my life experience. =) You are wonderful, just as you are.

I own an elementary book entitled "Giraffes Can't Dance", ending with "Gerald" declaring that "We all can dance when we find music that we love." What he's actually referring to is our "losing ourselves in the flow", finding that freedom of which you speak. David danced before God, his heart in an act of worship. The music, you know, doesn't have to be coming from a CD.....

Now I've got a mish-mash of songs with lyrics about dancing *dancing* in my head...<br /><br /><3<br />D PsycProfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15646958381121574708noreply@blogger.com
