Episode 259 Called To Dance

For today's holiday, we are taking the week off from recording a new episode. Instead, I decided to re-release episode #175 "Called to Dance", that came out in August of 2021. May you hear Hafiz' call to dance and be reminded of your deeper truth, your radiant light. Check out the the links below for Hafiz's poetry, to Barbara Holmes, and the Center for Action and Contemplation. Enjoy the podcast!   ------------------------------- Hafiz's poem reminds me that we are called to dance. I've used this beautiful poem as oxygen, especially when I was feeling the darkness and uncertainty of life creep back in. I hear so many people bracing themselves that things are going to be getting worse, before they get better. I don't want to get sucked into the darkness of hopelessness. This poem pulls me away from the despair, shifts my mood, brings me back to a deeper truth, a radiant light that I know lies within us. May we heed the call to dance, see life itself as a beautifully choreographed dance. We were created for joy, to smile, to love and be lifted up and to lift others up. Yes, and may our dancing be contagious! Links: The Gift: Poems by Hafiz, the Great Sufi Master Barbara Holmes Center For Action and Contemplation
