Feelin' This......

I'm FEELIN THIS!!!! As of ummmm......right now:

Unknown vs. Comfortability

The unknown usually brings out the best in people and comfortability brings upon complacency. Let's view in more detail of my train of thought; given that this is "According to me"....our decisions could be fear driven or passion driven.

Fear driven decisions results in complacent situations, for example, forced occupations, emotional stability, fear of failure, and etc. Having to work towards a dream that is not yours, only for the secured income, is one predicament that most of us can relate too. Many people also refuse to move away from their primary homes, because of the emotional stability that their family may give them. Fear of failure causes people to shy away from certain situations, because they are afraid of experiencing new emotions or interactions.

Passion driven decisions involves taking risks and investing more for a better outcome. Not fearing the unknown, but facing it with faith. The ones who benefit from fear usually consider these types of decisions as selfish. Uncomfortable situations cause us to adapt in a way that is still true to ourselves, but it allows us to learn more from others.

Passion driven decisions taps us into the gift that is given to you by a higher power is what I consider a purpose. This sounds very religious, but I do find individuals hiding behind their religion to make excuses for their complacency, which I am not a fan. Looking at "MY" point of view, what drives your decisions?



.....sorry for the erratic flow....

"Creator of Movement"

As a dance student, I first learned of this choreographer in my modern dance class. Watching the infamous pieces, Revelations and Cry, I created an interested in learning more about this creator. The emotions that were evoked during the visual stimulation were pure and very deep. He is one of the most influential choreographers in history and continues to be one of the best in the present and guaranteed in the future.

The world of modern dance was introduced to Alvin Ailey by the works of Katherine Dunham, Martha Graham, and Ruth St. Denis. Modern dance was not an art form that was glorified in those times (1940s-1960s), but the walls were being built through classical ballet. Like Dunham and Graham, Ailey created pieces that involved emotion through movement. Ailey would take simple movements and exaggerate them by creating a story of representation. His movements were almost animalistic, but yet very graceful given the specific emotion. The South was magnified in his pieces, describing the pain, triumph, and love of his history during times of racial discrimination and enslavement.

Every February, the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater tours here in south Florida, an event that I attend yearly. The very first performances I witness in my modern dance class many years ago, still evoke the same emotions today.

Enjoy the piece, Cry (split into two parts)...originally performed by the critically acclaimed Judith Jamison, whom is now the artistic director of the AAADT.
