I had taken a break for about a month because basically, I am frustrated with my progress. I feel as if I am between the beginning classes and the "step up" classes that are being offered in my area. Anyway, I went to a milonga a couple of weeks ago and had a wonderful time. I went with the idea of watching rather than dancing, so I stayed in the back; but I got asked to the dance floor anyway. However, that evening and the next day, there was a message in my heart, so I journaled it: "Tango doesn't belong to anyone; it has a spirit and power of its own. It can't be controlled or corralled; it lives in the hearts of those who have embraced it; and it will live and do what it wills with those hearts. We may want to control who comes to Tango, how they dance, what spirit they bring, but it's no use. Tango has a beauty and power and life of its own and we are all engulfed in it. Tango is one aspect of the Great Love that is in this Infinite Universe we call home." So that is why your post speaks so much to me. I was considering taking a year or so off because I have a lot going on, but I may continue with the beginner classes anyway. As I read in other posts here, getting the basics down is really key and I need to continue to do that. And keep reading this blog. Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
