Why do I care if you dance?

Because it will make you a better person.

It will bring you joy.

It will let you disappear.

It will connect you to something bigger. It will make you feel silly.

It will shake things loose. It will make you sweat.

It will set you free.

It will make you braver. It will open you up.

It will give you courage, but only if you take it.

I believe that once you’ve learned to be joyful, brave and free in your body you will exercise those rights elsewhere.

The dance is a practice.

A play area – the real question is what are you going to do with yourself afterwards.

Stop.

Don’t think about it now.

Don’t worry about the future; it’s on its way.

In the meantime why don’t you take my hand?

My, this song is lovely.
