I wish to express my joyful appreciation to Tom Stermitz, Tango Colorado and all the Denver tangueros/as who made the weekend so enjoyable and =
enchanting. This is my third time to Denver, two Memorial and one Labor Day. This was, by far, my most enjoyable dance experience there and =
probably anywhere. Although I do have to say that Buenos Aires is still the best.
Thank you Robert, Dan and Tom for mesmerizing and energizing DJing. Robert, Sunday in Cheeseman Park was incredible. I don't believe anyone =
wanted to leave the park. The music, the full moon, the tangueras. YES!! Thank you all.
I did come to fully realize how truly an "intimate" experience tango can be. Tis an intimate experience that is uncomplicated by dating, sex or =
any other of our normal ways of being intimate. Two people open their hearts and energies to each other freely for each two and one half to =
three minute tango. When its over you can depart from one another with an peace and astonishment that two people can share such indept =
intimacies and feelings without expecting anything else in return. You can experience what true relating is and can be. To me it is =
experiencing the mystical, the spiritual, the GODness in all of us. I was discussing how the tango experience can be with an acquaintance that =
was not a tango dancer. I stated how you can have many incredibly sweet experiences and every so often a mind blowing one. She looked at me and =
said, "It changes your life, dosen't it". I had not thought about tango in quite that way before. Tango does change your life if you embrace it =
with an open heart. Althought many tango lyrics are about the pains in life, I and others I have conversed with, know you can experience the =
sweetness of life through tango. And that experience can be carried forward to all parts of your life. I know that I am a more open, =
intimate, less inhibited person in part because of my discovery and embrace of tango.
So a special thanks to Rosalia, Elaine, Carne, Melody, Jill, Alejandra, Robin, Jeannie, Carole, Janis and others for sharing so freely your =
hearts and souls with me in the dance of tango; for making my weekend so special. A little part of your energies will always be with me and make =
me smile when I feel you.
A special thanks to Susana Miller whom I owe so much of my love and feel of tango.
Hooked and tango,
Many blessings,
Happy hearts and feet,
David
