Going to a Quiet Place- A Little Affirmation
Lately I may have started to lose sight of the quiet intimate attraction of tango and why I first started a love affair with the dance. In 2005 when I saw Juan Carlos Copes in the movie TANGO I said, "I HAVE to do that."- Not "I want to do that" Lately taking the tango inside to a quiet place and keeping it there gets put on hold. Too many plans, flyers, arrangements detract from the essence of what the dance means to me. Watch out I say to myself as I get more and more caught up in organizing, making plans, setting dates for more events and lessons. Now that I can write and think about this I want to quietly go back to less Facebook banter and more intimacy with Mike. Let the party and quipping be over. For me the smaller group, the quiet group surrounds me in a peaceful way. Let me relax and move freely. Let me focus on the lyrical melancholy of the music and dance the dance for my soul. Let someone who has seriously studied in Argentina with the 'best of the best" take over the details so I can DANCE.
