When you dance with another, what matters most is the trust you place in yourself and your partner to dance as one unit, moving in synchrony and feeling the harmony of your beating hearts. This is the ideal connection that makes dance come alive in the moment.
Yet as much as trust is a much-needed trait in dancing as a couple, often trust takes time to build and is subjective amongst dancers.
To trust is to let go of doubt.
To trust is to allow space for growth.
To trust is to know patience in waiting.
To trust is to allow space for faith.
To trust another is not easy
For one and all.
To some, it may be very difficult.
But trust is certainly worth trying.
To trust takes effort, not assumptions.
It takes practice in time and space.
For trust can be on many levels
Emotional, mental, or physical.
Trust is built to evolve along
For in building the relationship
The foundation needs to endure
The winds of change.
Trust what trust does.
Try to pin it down.
Watch how it turns out to be
Confusing and elusive…
Before you trust, you will
Spend time sensing,
And witnessing the energy,
The tension in the transactions
Being ready for changes,
Being prepared to brave
Through disappointments and dissatisfactions
That may arise at any moment.
And yet…
Trust is not only about building
But about the ability to let go
Of worry and insecurities,
Fear and failures.
To trust is to reach out
Without any expectations
But in utter faith and belief
That you will be supported!
A dance between a couple is a blissful feeling only when there is trust in both the self and the other, just as much as the passion, as only when there is the letting go, can there be the flow manifesting itself through the movements.

Wow! Just wow! You have hit another homerun young lady. You have managed to blow me away once again with your message. We can also use these words of wisdom in our relationships. Trust is so important in a healthy relationship. Every couple should have these words taped to their mirror and read them every morning. Thank you once again for sharing. I had to reblog your post. Everyone should read this.

Thank you for your resounding resonance . Although I may not have mentioned it directly here, I shared these reflections on trust, as I sense a lot of life and living can be understood in the patterns of movement in a dance , in the way the connects get established and more . Dance as an art of movement is truly insightful and valuable in its applications. So much to learn and understand indeed! Thank you for sensing this profoundly!
