I love it when my life reflects a movie moment. Spontaneous, fun and memorable. One of my favorites was when I was shopping at a large mall. At the center, there was a large holiday display and seating for the weary shoppers. My goal was to get to the other side of the expansive walk and have a rest. Just as I'm crossing, I almost bump into a man. He pardons, and we both start to go right. Whoops! Pardon again, and we both go left! On the third attempt, he sets down his bags, grabs me around my waist and we waltz around the circle laughing. The dance ends with me pointed the direction I need to go and him his. We were applauded for our spontaneous dance. I didn't even know I could waltz like that. He was an accomplished dancer and guided me around effortlessly.
What an ego boost and a lifetime smile for me! For a minute in time, I was Cinderella at the ball except I was in blue jeans and sneakers.
Shall we dance?
