The dance of life...





The world is like a huge stage for charades that are played by us, humans.


There would be happy stories... like a few strangers exchanging hard-belly laughs in cyberspace and forging new found friendships. There would also be sad stories... like finding out that your husband of 2 months have been playing behind your back with your bestfriend and now leaving you for her.


Since the day you were born, you will dance the dance of life... First to the tunes of the nursery rhymes, where everything would seem bright and happy. Then when the teen age kicked in, the tunes will progress to the latest top 10 hit songs.. The songs will stay upbeat as you breeze through life, meeting new people, making new friends, learning new things... There would be a change of tunes during the rough times.. 1st break-ups, the time you lose your bestfriend for no reason, or the time when everything around you started to crumble.


However, the dance still went on after the short intermission. It might be of a different tune, a slightly mature tune, but it still went on... Dance... dance... dance...! You kept on dancing... Sometimes alone... At times with a partner...


And when your partner decides to leave you alone on the dance floor, the song might stop for a while, waiting for your next move. At that time, you have a choice of whether to continue dancing or just quit there and then.


It's your dance... your call...


But..... whatever your choice would be... the music will still go on...

suddenly 'strictly ballroom' comes to mind :D

with or without partner, lets just dance! (do the joget ala t.pinkie?)

dance little lady dance..

I liked this little metaphore very much Binx. My suspicion is that most of us have kept on dancing. The trouble is, we've been dancing to the wrong tunes all this while and not realise it.

Grumpy enough for you? :-)

have been dancing solo for a while now and it's worrying as it has become a much comfortable mode - no worrying of your 'partner' stepping on your toes or dropping you flat on the floor when the moves get a lil bit on the tough side huh...

anyway, u just keep on dancing till u find the right tunes, the right moves and of course the right partner!!

I like your 'dance' post very much :)

sunshine:

hey there girl... don't worry about not having partner at the moment.. just enjoy the dance.. and when u least expected it, someone will come by and offer u his hand..

let's just dance ya.. ;)


p/s: how r u coping without the rhumba fix?

Anonymous said...

either you dance alone swaying to the soft tune or you tango into the night.

Binx, the music will go on..and on..and on.

Don't let the sun go down on you.
