A personal note about this dance:
This is a very important song and dance to me.
It’s about Bloodlines, and we don’t HAVE to follow our Bloodlines.
For me that is about how we all can make the choice to change everything that really stands in our way in a deeper form. For example things that come from our bloodlines. We had no influence on certain things we were teached when we were young. But now we do have… We are in charge.
About the way we look at things and the way we deal with things in our lives.
For me it’s also about we are never too late, we always got time, we are always on time. Devine timing.
Sometimes we might feel lonely, but we are never alone. And when you come at a point where you don’t see a way out and you feel like the storm keeps on raging. But don’t you forget: Life (or God) is not done with you yet! Trust.
Alex and Jelly Roll sing: “Break the chain, that left you scarred. From where you came, isn’t who you are.” And yes, that touches me. We are all capable of breaking chains, we are not the things that we have experienced. We are love. And we are even a little bit more loving to ourself and to others we will make the world a better and more loving place together.
Just remember… You’re stronger than you think.
