Let the Music Free You

And then Jean said, "Beth, you have become someone with whom I like to dance. You keep your own balance. You can turn. You can follow. You are gaining technique. Now I worry that the music holds you back. Let the music free you."
Why shouldn't the music free me, I wonder. It always has before.
I am afraid of...what?

Fear is interesting. Once you start to look at it, you can see it everywhere. So much of what we do, of what our society values, is grounded in fear. What if it wasn't?
Nothing! Let it free you.
Nothing. Fear, especially in art, is of ridicule, of exposing ourselves. Nothing can hold you back. When you go, you go. That's it. There's no turning back.
Many thanks.

I can imagine myself being afraid of not getting the balance, the turns, the techniques and not even hearing the music. Now maybe it's the music's turn. Sounds like it's time to fly. I know you will.
