again, I've had 1/2 of my coffee drink and I'm ready to ramble.
so i saw Burlesque last night.
yes. with Xtina and Cher. Stanley Tucci 'made' the movie (not surprising), but it was much better in most ways than i had expected.
Of course i am a total sucker for:
1. Dancing
2. Sparkling Outfits
3. Music
4. Completely Cheesy Love Stories.
So, i might not be the BEST person to ask.
Anyway, you might not imagine this to be true and i might be more transparent than i realize, BUT watching movies like this one always leaves me sad that i wasn't in the movie. Or that i can't currently execute such moves as these taught young ladies with seamless ease and grace.
i IMAGINE that given time, i would be pretty OK. You can't fake heart and i think that's pretty much ALL I'd have going for me.
This is all in my imagination remember. And it's very expansive.
So.
Where does this leave me.
Destined to just watch others strut what they've got, while i tense my whole body in mimicry?
Or just strut what I'VE got anyway.
Even if what I've got is a tiny ass with narrow hips, a sturdy abdomen, and prepubescent tits?
i think the answer here is YES.
DO IT.
or at least try my hardest.
that's what it's all about.
being my best.
PS. i don't have a problem dancing ...ever, the reluctance comes from the degree of expertise that i feel unable to attain, not the fear of an inability to perform.
this is where MY best comes in.
i guess i should get to yoga class. and quick.
or i could just put on a pair of heels and some liquid liner and see where that gets me.
rule for the day: Strut it. Shake it. It's what it was made for.
I love your description of your body, I will have to conjure up one for my own lovely vessel. I too am always wonder how it is that I didn't have years of choreography class on my life's agenda, but have been known to shake it when I get the chance, unfortunately I never cut loose unless there is alcohol, drugs or just plain "can't not move myself music" blaring in a large crowd. The last time I celebrated the sheer ability to move with abandon was way too long ago, but I think that I am feeling inspired by you and your longings.Have an excellent day my dear one.
ReplyDeleteI've been walking around practicing fancy finger snaps with that cool wrist snap. Add that to heels and a strut and a fancy winter coat and I'm ready to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!
