Let the dance in
Yesterday, I was at a mall with my family. In the distance, I heard thumping bass ahead of me, and a large crowd surrounding. Curious, I peeked through the crowd only to see...
...a dance competition!
The genre was house music, which I knew next to nothing about. But the beats were catchy, and the moves of the battling dancers were fluid and funky. It was amazing to see how some of them hit the beats in creative ways.
Before this, I would have never Googled 'house dance' or gone to YouTube to watch videos on it. But serendipity, brought me down a path that I would otherwise have not encountered.
The takeaway for me was this: it's important to find ways to expose myself to things outside the scope of my experience/comfort zone. Within the unknown is where possibilities exist.
But you first need to let the dance in.
