A Dance with Life




I sit to write this, "straight into blogger," not a pre-written post, but composed on the spot. Let's have fun; here we go!

Who will dance with me? Who will make the sun come up, go down, then bring the moon out to shine? Who will give me the nourishment I need to help this mind, body, and spirit? Who will be there day after day, whether I feel like dancing or sleeping?

Life came along and spoke of things I could have; things I could create; wonders that never cease. Life said, "take me by the hands and I will show you laughter to make your insides ache, wisdom to make your heart ache, and courage to feed your mind the strength it needs to dwell in peace.

Oh how I ached for all these things. I took life's hands and we have begun a dance through the universe. Let doldrums be damned, I will to go on. I seek the very nature within me that craves the nature outside of me. In this moment I have peace. Thanks for the dance!

  1. Hey Dixie,
    A blog written in 'real time'. I like this concept.
    Kinda' like the fact I'm typing a comment and I'm not sure where I'm going with it.
    To heck with the doldrums. Quite right too. I am joyous in the knowledge that life is leading you around the positive dance floor. Sing, dance, be merry. Thank you for allowing me to dance with you in this comment.
    Waltzing wishes, Gary xx

  2. Dear Dixie,
    So glad that you can say "to heck with the doldrums" and begin your all-singing, all-dancing experiences of life.
    So, I'm happy that you're happy and must thank you once again for your comments on my blog.
    Yours with Vey Best Wishes,
    David.

  3. Hi Gary,
    I've had some tough decisions to make lately. Decisions, like a whirlwind, that seemed to pull things from the bottom rung of life up into a tornado; such as what I saw in this photo. The photo looked positive, whereas the tornado produced mental images of negativity. It became a matter of attitude.
    "Real time" - I decided to try your method. It works out well when I'm prepped with my subject.
    Thank you for a very sweet comment; you're greatly appreciated.
    Peace, Dixie

  4. Hi David,
    Doldrums is a very old word. At first I thought to change it. Yet bloggers are so well read that any word within context can be sorted out. (maybe)
    I'm happy, you're happy, that I'm happy.
    I've a bit of a Fibro fog brewing so I hope my comments made sense.
    In peace, Dixie

    I love your blog and very happy that you are in this positive frame of mind. I love dancing and am enjoying the symphony of Autumn at the moment. The dance is wild, passionate and free. I hope you continue to dance and draw others up to dance too.

    boogie on down, Julie. XXX

  7. One of my favourite sayings is "dance as though no one is watching, love as though you've never been hurt, sing as though no one can hear you and live as though heaven's on earth". I believe that you done all four xx
