Dancing this rhythm
Rhythm of love, rhythm of love…
I had some difficulty with this prompt. I love music so much and it is always a challenge for me to pick just one song to define an extended period of time (especially a year. C’mon!) So… I’m going with a classic favorite of mine. I love everything about this track. The downtempo grooviness of it, the lyrics… it makes me happy.
2011 has felt like a year of redefining intimacy, letting my guard down, letting people in… in the most authentic way possible.
You got to dance closer to the ones that you love… it’s hard to imagine how that act (literally and figuratively) can ever be wrong. More of it in 2012.
