Gratitude

eye_of_zohar and I spent Friday night out at the Rhythm Society's quarterly All Night Dance Celebration as guests of bahir. I was especially happy for the chance to go. I was starting to think that living in an urban area was wasted on me, what with my focus on school and home. (Well, except for the stellar opportunities for magical training and companionship. That's certainly a benefit of living here.)

I wasn't finding my groove on the dance floor at first, so went off to cocoon in the chill space, where EOZ found me. Very sweet and just what was needed. I moved back and forth between chill space and dance floor, introversion and extraversion, until at 4 am my favorite DJ came on. I danced with abandon, infectious beats and polyrhythms driving away all self-consciousness. When Kenny is spinning, I'm suddenly a good dancer.

Today I'm grateful for love surrounding me like a golden cloak. For rhythm. Movement. Agility and tenacity of mind. Fierce pink blossoms on the fruit trees on campus. A stronger and more aligned body. Magical companions. The opportunity and challenge of service. Hope.
