In 1994 until 1996 I studied African dance and had the opportunity to dance with live drummers. It is the best way to dance—feeling the percussion as it enters the body not just the ears.
In my notes from 1994 I found this note to myself that I wrote down after an African dance class at Omega Institute. It says:
Listen for the beat under the beat.
Listen for the break—for the signs and signals that tell you to change or to stop what you are doing.
There is a dance lesson for the heart, for the lover and for making choices in a relationship.

Thank you, for several of your recent posts. Particularly this.
"Listen for the break—for the signs and signals that tell you to change or to stop what you are doing."
I wrote this down last week and stuck it on my desk and today I made a decision to listen. I need to.
Like I said... Thank you!
