Dance into Tomorrow

I'm having fun!
  I'm dancing without thinking about it.
  I'm running, feet off the ground, soaring into tomorrow.
  I'm energized about the happenings and the potentialities and the exploration!

But then I remember,
  I don't have income to pay for the simple process of living.
  My heart shuts down, my mind lurches, my soul retreats into the darkness.
  Thoroughly ensconced in my fear, I stop breathing, forget the potentials, fall into despair.

And without adieu,
  the brilliance is snuffed out,
  eclipsed by the shroud of death that only fear can impart.
  The chi asphyxiated, the potential slaughtered, the exploration terminated.

Turning to the light.
  Letting go the need to hide behind fear.
  Daring again to face forward, to embrace the dance.
  Stepping into the mystery, intention and faith co-creators and bold.

Dancing in the mystery
  is for the courageous, the audacious.
  And, it is for me...reluctant, awkward, regular, uncertain.
  Dance through the fear, even when you forget the steps!  Dance into tomorrow!
