Dynamic Dona’s Decisions in the Delirium over finding loving care of my body: while I Danced in a Duo with my Dr. Dorothy’s Diva, I was deciding how to mix the freedom of ease with our aging bodies as we compared butts and stomachs. Girlfriends in the hall! Also I think of the trauma we both have had, each in different ways. I know more of mine than hers, of course. Is mine visible? Does it matter? I kept thinking afterwards about our playful selves of how much I much I love and what a gift you have been to me in freeing my body and strengthen it.
Do we women learn to somehow not be at ease with our bodies or deny thinking about it? Especially after ageing life brings our physical beauty and strength challenges and continually working at to integrate even the simplest of form: say posture. Can working at appreciating how we look finding the relaxing body even just for this given day? It is great we have found being open and having fun help us move through this process. In a simple playful response to butts and stomachs we recalled that life is more than just work. Laughter heals. Just perhaps acknowledging our need can help practice what does need healing. Let us all heal in our own way.
