the dancing girl
She rushed out from the car, leaving the scarf and handbag on the floor and started to dance.
She comes forth with great strides, leaps and bounds, with lifted forehead and far-spread arms.
She wears no corseted ballet costumes. There is no audience or limelight in the parking lot. No music either. Yet she pays no attention. With a white crop top and casual jeans, she dances by herself.
The pointe suggest she is a ballerina. However, this piece is different from the professional ballet that stresses precision and restraint. It is the notion free, natural and divine expression of the human spirit. It allows the freedom of movement rigid technique does not.
Dance like no one is watching and sing like no one is listening.
The desire to dance is unbridled and spontaneous. She trusts her instincts instead of weighing the potential consequences and performing cost benefit analysis. She lives at the present moment, pursuing desire and expressing emotions directly.
Now that the dance is over, the flash subsided, but the joy will stay with her.
