IMPACT OF TOUCHING WORDS: I went to the Art of the Belly Festival in OC, MD this year. I wanted to go to a big festival and see belly dance friends that I have not seen in a long time. Since I left NYC I have done projects closer to to home and haven't done as many things keeping me seen in the bigger scope. I started feeling too small in this great big world of ours. a little pebble. It is always easy to start worrying about existence and purpose.
At the festival this really successful dancer came up to me, held my hand and told me that way back in the day Figaro Cafe where the Scott Wilson band played she saw me dance there. She was 17, brought her mom and I got her up to dance during my show. She told me that that experience inspired her to launch down the belly dance path.
How wonderful that this show, just one performance in the midst of thousands, birthed a sparkle that lead to a dance artist blessing our dance form with her talents. It is so nice to hear I have done something that resulted in something so good. And thanks to AOTB for creating an event that lifted my spirits!
