Lessons from dancing

The poetic thing about dancing is how it homogenizes the basic instincts of human nature all at once. The ability to allow our body to be simply guided by the flow of music, while still keeping our conscious mind awake to the presence and motion of our partner and ourselves The idea is to let music soothes us, and our partner guides us.

The beauty with dancing lies in the way we exude our femininity while still preserving our control, and the way our partner has to dashingly guides us on the floor and yet be gentle enough not to over-exert his dominance on us. We must never be afraid to let go, and he must never hesitate to guide. How the beauty of ancient grace and chivalry takes over both of us and the chimes of pure romance takes hold.

Dancing requires trust and faith, dancing requires confidence, humility, and chastity, dancing requires respect, love, and affection. Dancing is itself, the most truthful depiction of basic human nature. Learn to dance, and we learn to love.
