"When did you stop dancing?
When did you stop singing?
When did you stop being
enchanted by stories?
When did you stop being
comforted by sweet silence?"
~Gabrielle Roth
Author Gabrielle Roth tells us
that the Shamanic answer to
depression lies sussing out the
above questions. Certainly,
something to think about.
In my case, I think I haven't
danced since I turned 40. I
really don't get the cutoff date
as I used to love to dance.
The father of my children and
I were a duet in Mexico for
nigh onto 20 years. We even
sang on the local television
stations. We sang for church,
parties, gatherings . . . and
I don't think I've sung since
returning to the U.S.
Speaking of music, I used to
play the piano for song service
in Mexico and I don't think I've
played the piano since I came
back to the U.S.
At least I have never, ever lost
interest in stories of any kind
and silence is still my best
friend. Two out of four . . .
Doesn't that mean I'm halfway
there?!
Methinks there may be a certain
amount of unavailable energy
for song and dance. I have an
idea . . . I'll just double up on
the stories and silence and I'll
be right on top again!!!
