Anyone who’s lived long enough has come to the understanding that living this life goes in cycles/circles. Sometime you’re riding the crest. Sometimes you’re at the bottom of the wave – drowning.
If you’ve survived enough of those circles/cycles, you trust that both circumstances will come ’round again.
My thought on this today is – no matter where you are within those circles of living today – what do you do with all your experiences? Do you succumb to the preponderance weighing down upon your creativity, curiosity and Spirit? Do you step back, take that breath, clear your thoughts and begin anew? Do you share your load with a few trusted Friends? Do you keep it all inside and muddle your way through? Do you combine a variety of known and un-known “techniques” to help yourself?
In my experiences I’ve learned to do all the above (and a bit more, too); all the while knowing in my heart of hearts that what exists (at this moment) will change. Patience. Fearlessness. Trusting the “dark”. Turning to the “light”.
If not now, when? …and, by helping yourself you are helping others when you bear witness to your own humanness.
Many thanks to those who have helped me, if in no other way than…listening. Grazi. Merci. Xie xie. Thank you.
Dance on…

Always dancing – one way or the other (visible and/or invisible) – and, Hi *there* to you, as well, Thomas.
Thanks for swinging by and leaving a message – always appreciate.
I’ll soon be re-launching my more traditional portal…however, this will serve – for now.
Enjoy this day you make/are given…
Dancing on…
