From the Corner of the Bar
#MondayLetters
Chère amie,
The night is alive with the sound of music and laughter, but your dancing stands out like a beacon in the darkness. I can see the beauty and strength that you have built over the years, the decisions that you have made to bring you to this very moment, and I am filled with joy and hope for what the future holds for you.
As you dance, you seem to defy the laws of gravity, your feet moving like they are made of feathers, and I am entranced. By the way you move, by the way you command the space around you, by the way you take hold of life and make it your own. I watch you, unnoticed by the rest of the world, but I do not mind. To be here, in this moment, scribbling away to the rhythm as you sway, is all the world I need. But it’s getting late and I know I must leave soon. Je partirai comme une ombre, invisible as I came.
And yet, even as I sit here, I know that I will never forget this moment. I will carry it with me always, a small but beautiful memory of the perfect imperfections of life, of the wonder of the human spirit, and of the magic that can happen when we let go and allow ourselves to be fully alive.
So here, from the corner of the bar, I wish you the stars and all the beautiful things. May your life be filled with passion, purpose, and the kind of beauty that only a soul like yours can create.
Until next time, mon ami.
— Dee.
