whenever one door closes i hope one more opens
promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
and when you have the choice to give it up or dance
i hope you dance
Dance - Lee Ann Womack
it would be unfair if i left out a new experience which i had last saturday over at the cultural night. it was my first foray into the unknown world of tarian, or the malay dance form. and the whole experience was like a breath of fresh air.
unknown to me were the intricacies of the art. and unknown too, was the true expanse of the activists who have dedicated their lives to perfecting and furthering their appreciation of dance. well, on saturday, i got a glimpse of them all. and what a beautiful awareness it was.
words will not be able to adequately express what i felt on that day. what i learnt, saw and understood are perhaps only my own sentiments to ruminate.
but the one point that perhaps i would like to highlight after all that is, faith and love come together and sneak up on you to give the best surprises ever. i thought that i had lost a love and lost a part of my faith before this. then somehow, in the greater plan that is His, i got reminded of what and who i truly am.
i am not without love or faith.
through tarian, i rediscovered that other things can create love and heal me. and that in all that love, faith in Him can be re-ignited and become stronger than ever before. He is always around to remind you to look at the bigger picture.
and look i will.
