Sensual Skating! : )

As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace, and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect. 

     The truth is that yesterday I took the time to watch the figure skating from the Peyong Chang Winter Olympics, 2018. Whilst I was watching, I offered an occasional tweet, but I felt that my response, and these figure skaters deserved more than a tweet, and decided to share these words. Whilst I am cheering for Team USA, I have to commend all of the dancers. And in fact everyone who is taking part in the Pyeong Chang Winter Olympics 2018. I really don't know how you are able to compete in the cold weather, but this is also a command of the sport that you have devoted your talents to, also the Winter Olympics wouldn't be called Winter Olympics if it wasn't Winter! ;)

Mirai Nagasu - Historic Triple Axel

​     Figure skaters  Adam Rippon, Mirai Nagasu, Alex , Maia Shibutani and all members of team USA, totally captured my attention, and as the artists, or the creative minds would truly understand: we feed of this energy, it is this artistic energy that inspires us. Whilst the didn't win the Gold medal, Bronze was Gold to me. It was their stories, triumphs, and the desire to overcome obstacles that also inspired me. On the ice, we didn't see the struggle, but clean performances, that were defined by bodily symmetry, lines, structure and patterns created with the body. The synchronicity that is at the individual level required, to work with the body and the ice; as your canvas. For the couple performances, not only the capability to work with the ice, but also to work  with another body. I was mesmerized by this ability to express agility, strength, but also fragility. To be able to express emotion, feelings, sensual, softness, but to remain composed shows how figure skating uses not only the body, but senses, springing from internal to the external, radiating from within, the simple push, and pull that resides within, to capture exactly how you want the audience to feel, is truly beyond words. I continue to remain in awe as bodies, souls,  dance majestically, but also to be able to let go, set the self, the soul free, is completely beyond words.

What's this? It sounds a little odd but perfectly fine. I think I am going to like it. It's too bad I don't know anyone. I don't have someone to spend time with. I would love to experience these kind of activity but I have always been alone. It would even be more odd if I do this all by myself but wait, maybe it's a good idea. Yes. Maybe I will just turn this into some kind of art or solo performance.
