and who you are now becoming
is where the dance of Life really takes place.

Live to experience something new each day -
to learn something new, to meet a new friend,

to feel the wind newly on your skin,
to touch a new fear and a new anger,
and with focused intent and good fortune,
to find an ample measure of your own joy.

I will dance a little. I will move with the wind.
