The Eternal Dancer moves within every living thing. Its dance pushes and pulls people into motion and into rest. The beat of the music it uses is unique and heard only by the ears who listen for it. It is the whisper in the breeze, the crash of the waves in the ocean, the silence of the night, and the noise of the day. It changes and alters itself to roll with the punches thrown by the hardships of life and the overwhelming power of death. It is a never ending song to a never ending dance, for with every person who bows out gracefully from the Eternal Dance, another person is born to step into the empty place.
The Eternal Dancer will not wait for any man, but instead will dance freely and wait for those who wish to join it to do so. It waits for people to free themselves and to the waltz of nature and follow the lead of higher powers. Its name and face changes to accommodate all those who dance as though no one is watching. For only an open mind will hear its call.
The Dancer will tango one through love, sway with one through despair, waltz for comfort, and walk with one when the endless dance must play its final song. It will twirl one into the next life, where they can dance forever, with no need of something to guide them. Or to teach them how to dance, for they already know the steps and the beat, they must simply find the will and the want to begin again.
Why not dance through life? We only have one and there is no better time to learn. No better time to make mistakes and be reprimanded for dancing off beat, so that one will not misstep again. Now is the time to learn to be free and enjoy the body one is gifted with, no matter the stature, for each holds a part of the Eternal Dancer, which is calling out to be set free and allowed to dance with the one who knows it best.
Carpe Diem.
