The Tango of Life
When taking Argentine Tango instruction you learn to twist and turn your body in an elegant and graceful way. Life has many twists and turns and unfortunately many of them are not very graceful. The plans that you make don’t turn out always as expected, sometimes better, sometimes worst. You don’t stop making plans, but realize that not everything is in your control.
Life can be routine and stale or it can be an adventure. You can play it slow and safe, fast and loose, or somewhere in between. Argentine tango is like that… there is no regular rhythm, dancers slow down and speed up with the tempo of the music.
When life knocks you down, you get up. You find a reason to get up again and again. What is your life’s motivation? What were you born to do and need to do to be content? Go do it.
Many years ago, I relocated from the East Coast to Hawaii and lived there for 6 years. I had my ups and downs in Hawaii, but experiencing a new culture and seeing some beautiful places was an adventure. I don’t recommend you move to Hawaii, but taking a chance, trying something new, do what you have always wanted to do… go for it.
