Some of you know that until a few weeks ago, I was planning to move to another city. I just couldn't fit into Tucson and I didn't want to honestly. I was making plans to pack my bags, embark on a yogic journey, and head to the *Big City* under the sun.
However, given the recent events of dancing in my life, I played the "what-if" game. What would I do once I arrived in this new place? What would my underlying goal of it all be?
Honestly? I asked myself.
Yes.
To find a partner. And live happily in a large city where a Walgreens and grocery store were within walking or biking distance. Where there were more people my own age and more dancing.
But mainly to find a partner.
In this new place, I realized I would try to create the life around dancing that failed to emerge in Tucson. The location of where I ended up, however, was of little consequence. Honestly, I would travel to the ends of the earth until I found exactly what I wanted. Funny enough, I didn't have to. I found it in Tucson after all...a place I never would have expected (let's be real - a place no one would have expected).
A friend of mine has this quote posted on his website:
"Everyone has been made for a particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart." ~ Rumi
I think it's true. Personally, I have a path that I have to follow or else I'll never be satisfied. I've seen this draw in others, too, and it will continue to reincarnate itself in our lives until we happily surrender and turn in its direction. For me, it's dancing. I now have a partner, a coach, goals, and a plan. I'm going to be in Tucson for a while :).
