“Everything in the universe has rhythm. Everything dances.” — Maya Angelou Dance! Dance carelessly. According to Sweet Dreams, “You are going to achieve success in life, if you dream of yourself dancing alone!” So dance alone: freely, crazily, without constraint.

 

“Don’t look at your feet to see if you are doing it right. Just dance.” – Anne Lamott This Sunday, take your eyes off your feet and follow the lesson of the pitcher plant. Just dance.
