Tonight we dance...at least I dance. Because I can't help it, and because I will whether or not others do if the music is good...and usually even if it isn't good. Dance is my way of hiding in plain sight. It is safer than talking, easier than flirting. I am much more comfortable moving than trying to connect any other way. It is a weird confident/insecure thing. I move because I am not confident, and when I move I am confident. I move for myself and for its own sake.
So in a way, I retreat into movement. I can't decide if that's a trait I just accept, or I if I should limit my dancing in an effort to force myself out of my comfort zone.
I hope you have a blast dancing! And keep And eye out to move out of your comfort zone if the opportunity comes.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the boogie with a lot of space a *lot* and the smashed against a lot of foreign bodies boogie was fun too in small doses. And I will try to challenge my comfort zone (maybe gently, gradually, or maybe by jumping in over my head...I've been known to do both at different times in my life)
DeleteThe Queen misses dancing. :-/
ReplyDeleteI... um... well, don't all that much. But, we both know that how The Queen feels trumps all else. ;-)
Well, she can come dancing with me anytime the Jester will keep the Prince occupied and release the Queen for an evening of groove. ;-)
DeleteUnless you want to put me in charge of the Prince so you two can have a date night. :-)
A date night? That sounds familiar... Hmm... Might have to take you up on that. ;-)
DeleteThough, if you ask her, she'd probably rather go dancing! :-P
or mayhaps we figure out a way to do both this summer at different times!!
