13 Apr Susan’s Sound Advice #2
The other evening, I
was watching with awe a group of dancers moving to the beat of a live
Brazilian band. I was dying to get up there, but knew I had no idea what
I was doing. Everyone’s afraid of something. . making a fool of
themselves, failing, etc. The key is to not let it paralyze you. Idecided to challenge my fea…r of getting up on that dance floor. I said
to myself, “O. K, fear, welcome to my world, let’s do this together”. I
got up, started following steps that others were taking, and before I
knew it, I had multiple partners appear. I had private dance lessons,
and even though I kept losing my step, I had a blast. I survived my
fear! You don’t have to be fearless, just realize you can acknowledge
the fear and keep moving forward. Only when we are no longer afraid
do we begin to live
