Why Blog?

Since I was around 12, I kept a journal.  Journaling offers me a unique path to sort through my thoughts, feelings, and life.  I often arrive at a place of clarity and further understanding around what I have written about.  Already, I have self-published 4 books.  This form of intensive writing greatly assisted me in the ability to teach with more skill and frequently dramatic results.

In addition, I often look for underlying motivations in my actions and other people’s actions.  Also, I frequently look for self-motivation.  Blogging combines these two motivations:  it furthers my understanding of underlying motivations, as well as provides self-motivation in many ways.

Therefore, I intend for this blog to:

  • arrive at a place of clarity and further understanding of Tango
  • increase my ability to teach, dance and DJ Tango
  • attain greater clarity in my life journey, which has now become mostly Tango
  • reach many people that I could otherwise not reach without a blog, for I believe I have gifts to share in the Tango world, and want to give these gifts to many
  • interact more with other bloggers who reflect on Tango – I have already found richness, laughter, wisdom, and good info in their posts
  • blogging seems one of many appropriate next steps to grow and interact in the Tango world
  • be of service to myself first and foremost, and to you my readers second

FREQUENCY OF WRITING:  I used to be ambitious and make somewhat grandiose plans, not now.  With my blog I really do not know if I will be consistent, or frequent or even write more than another entry.  I and you shall see ;)

YOUR FEEDBACK:  Please be kind in your feedback.  I will be kind in my writing to all of you.  I have had enough mean-spiritedness from myself and others for a few lifetimes.

With curiosity, adventure and playfulness, here I go…
