Dancing for beginners

Friday...for many it's the start of the weekend...'Le Weekend'...it's time to take stock of what has gone before....Monday to Friday...nine to five...the 'daily grind'...it's time to cut lose and meet up with friends..drink a glass or two...consider yourself part of something else other than 'The Rat Race'...to shake free from the shackles of day to day ....

This is of course not so true for those who work in shifts..for the nursing and care workers..for those who work through out the night...for those who keep the fabric of society running and safe..for Parents ..those who mourn..those who await news from abroad of sons missing in action...

The rhythm of life runs through out all and in all...we take make our steps...we get it wrong...we try again..we join with others...we learn to dance...we are always beginners, because the dance always changes. But we are not alone no matter how alone we feel...for there is nothing new under the sun...and under the sun we are...upon this ball of rock hurtling through the firmament...alone and yet not alone...may I have this dance?
