The below is a blog I posted on BlogSpot now blogger June 2, 2009.I titled it Dance or Dancer. I think of this particular post often because this question still comes to my mind often. It actually came to mind today, as I am working on a different blog. I still like my Blogger.com site. Not sure I like it better then WordPress.com, but I do have some various blogs on there that might strike a chord with some. This particular post can be read at the following link.

I read quite a bit and I love quotes or pithy comments that are able to convey a far reaching meaning, thought, or “knowing”.
When my oldest daughter was in boot camp I would write her daily and send a “Thought for the day.” She didn’t seem to thrilled or inspired, but she did tell me that several other young ladies in her training looked forward to HER letters from her mom, just for the “thought of the day.” Remembering this makes me smile as much today as it did then.
I recently read a book, (I think it was Eckhart Tolle’s- “A New Earth”) but I can’t say for sure if that was the one or not, but what I do remember is a quote that has stayed with me. I am going to share that quote with you all now and hope that it produces a thought of understanding and peace for you as you go about your day.
“In Life sometimes you’re the dance and other times you’re the dancer.”
So no matter which you are today the dance or the dancer do it well. Life is good. Have a Splendid and blessed day.
Take time to be thankful for all you take for granted.
With Love

I still Love this quotation. I think often when I’m having a less than stellar day. What am I today the Dance or the Dancer. I find for myself I usually am the Dancer. I feel the vibration, then my sway or swing interprets the meaning for me through my natural movement to the music or vibration of that moment.

I also believe it is impossible to remain uptight if we just dance for a simple 2 minutes. Taylor Swift has it right when she wrote Shake it off.

A simple moment of music and dance produces a luxury of self happiness.

So today be the dancer. Let your body naturally flow with a song, or vibration that makes you close your eyes and just get lost for a brief minute or two. The smile that envelopes you in a big hug is just what you need. Guaranteed.

Love sent,
