Guidance


GUIDANCE - As I searched for Guidance I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word and remembered reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky. When one person realizes and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing lightly in one direction or another. It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other. My eyes drew back to the word GUIDANCE. When I saw "G," I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i." God, "u" and "i" dance. God, you and I dance. This statement is what GUIDANCE means to me. As I let go and let God, I know that I will get G_U_I_DANCE about my life. Once again, I let God lead. Author Unknown

Angel,

That is a beautiful thought, only thing is it takes two to dance. It takes partnership, trust and committement. All things alcoholics are not.

It's nice to dream!!!!!!!!!

Love ya,
Andrea

Hi angel,


yeah, ever try to dance Salsa or Merengue with two people leading? result=spaghetti


One person leading, one following, whether Tango or  Waltz =harmony.


Of course, at some point follower can become leader , then, =real harmony..oh dear that's  what makes dancing an art....


greetings to all
