Senses combine in an ecstatic experience, and you can occasionally repeat this euphoria built of rhythm, melody and movement if you come back and keep dancing to good music and callers. I've seen it on the dance floor, felt it singing and playing with other musicians, holding hands in a circle of song. Transcendant experiences open us up, while fear shuts us down. From the far side of ecstasy, we see the connections, the fragile web of life and our place in it. We build the bridges between strangers in the community that grows from shared positive experience.
Fear buys guns.
I'll take pleasure, please.
