Signature Move
A signature move is an essential act that awaits accompaniment. Jackson’s Moon Walk, a handshake, Churchill’s “V” sign, a high five, Fosbury’s Flop, a raised glass, Cesar’s thumb down, a standing ovation, Bernstein’s entreating wave, crossed fingers.

It is unclear because darkness… obscures the given direction Despite this, I must venture forth, step aheart into the darkness, with courage embrace the unknown, engaging what I do not know. “Be not afraid” is a mantra –Continue reading “In the Darkness”
