"So tell me everything isn't about me. But what if it is? Then say they didn't do it to hurt me. But what if they did? I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me. You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me. So all you kids can sneak into my house with all the cobwebs. I'm always drunk on my own tears. Isn't that what they all said? That I'll sue you if you step on my lawn. That I'm fearsome. And I'm wretched. And I'm wrong. Put narcotics into all of my songs... And that's why you're still singing along." πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί: Linda & Timmy KILLER TANGO. #findyourartbeat #dancing #dancesport #tango #coloradodancesport #showcase #lyrics #whosafraid #taylorswift #ttpd

Hands down, I think it was my favorite routine this year. My young friend is growing so much in her dancing! If only I'd had the courage to begin when she did. πŸ’— There was something about the way Adrienne gave herself to this number that called to mind another tune: "This one's for the girls Who've ever had a broken heart Who've wished upon a shooting star You're beautiful the way you are. This one's for the girls Who love without holdin' back Who dream with everything they have. All around the world, This one's for the girls. Yeah, we're all the same inside - From one to ninety-nine." Thank you for your earnest, enthusiastic, and joy-filled dance, Adrienne.

What it has brought to my life is unmatched by any other art, endeavor, or experience I've had so far. For me, the ballroom floor is holy ground.

Can't stop 'til you're lying right here next to me. I should stop... But I think I'll do it anyway. Baby, would you ever want to be my girlfriend? I don't wanna play no games.

"If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts could tell. Just like an old-time movie, 'bout a ghost from a wishing well... in a castle dark or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet. You know that ghost is me. And I will never be set free, as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see." Jane & Robert. They danced to #ifyoucouldreadmymind by #gordonlightfoot. I think it's possible it was my favorite dance from the whole #showcase, because it was one I could #dance with my heart as I watched the story unfold. This doesn't always happen for me, and when it does, I hold those performances close. I will never forget as they were finding their places, Toby, the #coloradodancesport Creative Director, asked if the lighting was okay. Jane offered that it needed to be dark, and "tragic enough." The guitar began, and by several bars into the music, my tears came freely. If ever you have had a πŸ’”, this is a #bolero you would have been able to understand. "If I could read your mind, love, what a tale your thoughts could tell. Just like a paperback novel, the kind the drugstore sells - when you reach the part where the heartaches come, the hero would be me. But heroes often fail. And you won't read that book again, because the ending's just too hard to take." 😭...❀...πŸ‘...πŸ™Œ. #findyourartbeat

"Be still, and the earth will speak to you." ~ Navajo Proverb β€’ I've been in something of an artistic slump for months. I think it coincides with Coronavirus... I feel like my last creative endeavor was dancing my second Showcase. Soon after that, I entered into a very painful goodbye. And while in the throes of deep and raw grief, a microscopic villain came onto the scene and overturned life as I knew it. The threat of the Coronavirus stole an overseas trip with friends that I had been planning for several years. It stole a visit to my sister, brother-in-love, and the Smalls. Especially in the early weeks, it left me very much alone in an 1100 square foot world. β€’ As such, I'm not sure I've fully appreciated the gifts that are offered to me during this unusual and unprecedented time. But one thing I am beginning to welcome is some of the stillness that has come with this season. β€’ Most days, I've awakened slowly, and started them more gently and less hurried. β€’ Having more quiet thrust upon me has given me a lot of room to sit and think. I enjoy a meandering mind. Mine is usually so "on task," I forget what it's like to think without being in DRIVE. β€’ I've been gifted more time with each of my parents. It reminds me of Bonnie Raitt: "I see my folks, they're getting old and I watch their bodies change. I know they see the same in me, and it makes us both feel strange. No matter how you tell yourself it's what we all go through, those lines are pretty hard to take when they're staring back at you. We are scared. Scared to run out of time." And so, what a blessing that a global pandemic has given us a little more time together. β€’ "Be still, and the earth will speak to you." In this time of relative stillness, I saw an owl on a fence post. It wasn't until I'd gotten home that I noticed she was clutching the day's prey. Something about that made me want to remember to take things one day, one moment, at a time. β€’ It may be a time of creative quiet. An incubation, perhaps? Or simply a rest? Don't know. Doesn't matter. In this moment, it's nice to be still and try to listen as the earth whispers her secrets. β€’ #findingmyartbeat

"I see the world being transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up a the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more." ~ Anne Frank

"Art is the only way to run away without leaving home." ~ Twyla Tharp β€’ Let us run, run, run away while we are in quarantine. It is part of how we will stay sane in this time when we must be apart from each other. β€’ #findyourartbeat

"I will love the light, for it shows me the way. Yet I will endure the darkness, for it shows me the stars." ~ Og Mandino β€’ These are complicated times. I am so inspired by those who are already finding silver linings: Some are making the most of the opportunity to have concentrated time with the little people that have been entrusted to them (oh, the magic of having Mom and Dad at home for weeks!)... Some are recognizing what it can be like to slow down, and are giving the time to reflecting and re prioritizing, reconnecting spiritually... Italian villagers exercise an act of daily community by gathering at 6 p.m. on their balconies to make music and sing... Our everyday heroes are suiting up, showing up and trying to find ways to keep us (or make us) well. Their daily jobs are difficult; their acts of courage now are elevating gratitude and creating a platform for expressions of it. Perhaps, in this time when we don't quite know the way, we will have ample opportunity to count our stars. Here's to one of the things that brings so much light and joy and growth to my life! I will eagerly await the brush of my suede-bottomed shoes, back on the ballroom floor! β€’ #findyourartbeat

"If I had a spell of magic, I would make this enchantment for you: A burgundy heart-shaped medallion, with a window that you could look through. So that when all the mirrors are angry, with your faults and all you must do, You could look through that heart-shaped medallion, and see you from my point of view." ~ David Wilcox β€’ #findyourartbeat
