What Matters in the End

"Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath,

kick off your shoes, and dance."

Oprah Winfrey

Within the rhythms of life, we find our lovely selves dancing with diverse partners, learning new steps, grasping hands, and sometimes stepping on toes.  Whether we are rotated forward or left in a spin, we choose between a spicy salsa or a slow two step experiencing love within.

The body, mind and spirit react to the energies entering our space.  They can make the hair stand up on the back of the neck or create an experience of feeling home deep in our core..  In the arms of a partner we can feel the urge to run or enjoy a caress wishing it to last forever more.

Whether we have been taught explicit steps and forms or follow uncharted melodies, life is an unfolding dance.  In the end, when the music no longer plays, and our feet are in need of rest, will it really matter if we had worn gloves on our hands or followed the beat of our heart?
