Ecstatic Dance in Oakland

I am so grateful for ecstatic dance in Oakland.. I came there needing to shake off energy, to express myself.. at first it was an awkward dance.. I was shy to look at others and to move.. but I soon found my flow.. I started to fly around the room.. everyone was mellow.. then I became me.. I became a ball of fun.. I felt inventive.. everything I was doing was done with pure joy.. soon I would get tired slow down.. then I did reiki with myself.. feeling the universe.. then I could feel my core.. I could feel my healing.. I could feel me.. and I laughed.. I laughed so hard.. and I didnt stop laughing.. I decided to not stop.. sometimes I feel worried that someone doesnt like it and then I decide that I decide before I try.. I'll never get off this rock.. so I just feel my core.. with each laugh I feel it strengthening.. soon I feel the confidence of full laughter or a rather booming range. All the sudden I find energy coming towards me.. the room is filled with cries of love.. and I am amplifying.. this is pure love.. I am feeling happiness, space.. in the streets of oakland and san fran are mean.. I feel not to look or interact too much on the streets.. but here I felt an oppurtunity to connect to express, to take a chance, be myself.. and I started to dance, to see that there are some magnificient being.. and I'm feeling myself.. I'm allowing my joy to come out. So thank you Oakland ecstatic dance and all the ideas of ecstatic dance. A special shout out to Richard.. I cant believe he just walked into my peripheral vision!
