“We didn't dance together. We danced our own dance, our own space. But we felt the connection. We were three people in communion with the music. The music sang and we sang back, loudly, with our bodies.
For a moment, all the superficiality of the world; all its banal cruelty, wokeness, and mundane distractions—everything faded. Our souls reverberated with the purity of music, the release of dance, and the separate yet united communion of disparate people in that single experience.”

“In an instant, I suddenly knew it was all true. He was real, and in Him was the life I’d been longing for, one of purpose, meaning, and hope. I could lean on Him. Whatever I might face, He would hold me through it all. He would lead me in a dance that would free me from all the weights holding me down, from all the sin eating me up. He would show me true joy, peace, and delight. He would lead me out of death and into life.”

“What is dancing other than the desire for a moment of freely-given joint creation? It takes time, but even more than time, it takes trust. Trust, not so much in another—humans are so damn changeable—but trust in the part of another that does not change. The part that is whole and happy.”

“Unresolved mental problems get stuck in our bodies and try to talk to us through pain if the subtler ways have failed to reach us.”
