Jun 16, 2008 - Dancing With Life
Life dances. It dances with you and it dances with me however it’s going to. Good things are going to happen, unpleasant things, scary things, and that's not a choice. So the willingness to show up in your own life moment to moment, to know the fire of your life, takes genuine courage. But it’s not a kind of invincible courage—it’s the courage to be with the up and down, to be with the movement, to be with the dance. That’s the opportunity of practice.
