BioThis is my third LJ and a fresh start.
"I like to live in the sound of water,
in the feel of mountain air. A sharp
reminder hits me: this world is still alive;
it stretches out there shivering toward its own
creation, and I'm a part of it. Even my breathing
enters into an elaborate give-and-take,
this bowing to sun and moon, day or night,
winter, summer, storm, still –- this tranquil
chaos that seems to be going somewhere.
This wilderness with a great peacefulness in it.
This motionless turmoil, this everything dance."
- Wiliam Stafford
"Know perfection, but let imperfection be
You will be like a valley in which all manner of things are grown
Fertile ground for every thought, every action"
-Tao Te Ching XXVII
sometimes I write entries from a place of desolation, and then I worry that I am not living up to my idea of what "existdance" means. Then I think at least it is a screenname I can grow INTO, rather than a screenname I can grow out of. Existdance is the person I aspire to be. It is me living life to it's fullest, me blossoming out of myself, becoming genuinely and spiritedly myself. Stopping to smell the lilacs and strawberries. And dancing a lot.
