I have a confession...

This song moves me.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb0Ql3biTM8

It sends me to a place where I connect with the soul of my roots and where I feel my ancestors dance around me in joy.

This song transforms me.  It transforms the energy of the room with a sweet of the sweetest taste of me, of my people, of my culture, and of my history.

I play this song over and over and over til I forget the time and allow myself to be in a space between.

In this space, time doesn't exist, neither does the past or the future.

I am present. 

In this present moment, I find that I am eternal.

The music invites me to breathe, to inhale a joyous breath, to be grateful for being alive and for the blessing of being able to move this body in joyous movements.

My body moves effortlessly, moving away from its rigidity, allowing the melody to melt away tensions.
