2022 hour 3 / prompt 3 “tension”
Prompt: chose – audio prompt ‘city of stars’ arr. for 2 cellos
Dance, like life, is an exercise in tension
So much can be expressed with so little
Knowing when to reach out
Knowing when to not
Knowing when to let go
Knowing when to hold on
One gets rehearsals
One does not, more’s the pity
Both have beauty
Both have risk
Both have the capacity to encompass the best
Of art, of motion, of love, of wonder, of passion of joy
Of pain, of sorrow, of loss, of lack
In all of this tension, this possibility
… is life, is timing, is trust…
Put your best foot forward, hold out your hand and dance onward
For you cannot back into the future

“So much can be expressed with so little. ”
I found this line quite profound.
