Dance has given my life meaning, energy, interests, friendships, learning experiences, and most of all an appreciation for nature - a connection with the processes of nature and it became an insightful part of creativity. It became the lens through which I look at life. I'm part of this dance right now!"

And gradually it went from just coaching to actually running businesses because I've had experiences that were life changing.
Anthony Robbins

Glory be to God for dappled things-
For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;
Landscape plotted and pieced-fold, fallow, and plough;
And áll trádes, their gear and tackle and trim.
All things counter, original, spare, strange;
Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)
With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
Praise him.
Gerard Manley Hopkins

So I take my life as I find it, as a life full of grand advantages that are linked indissolubly to my noblest happiness and my everlasting safety. I believe that Infinite Love ordained it, and that, if I bow willingly, tractably, and gladly to its discipline, my Father will take care of it.
J. G. Holland
