My random thoughts and perceptions on the world

Let’s set the stage…. It’s a very dimly lit nightclub. You are on the dance floor, and the blinding flashes of bright light make it even more difficult to see more than 6 inches in front of your own face. You begin dancing with a stranger you meet on the floor. You make strained conversation over the loud thumping of the music, and are actually having a good time. You dance for hours and don’t even notice. The night begins to wind down, and before you know it, the lights are turned up and last call is announced. Finally, the chance you have been waiting for all night….you get to see the mystery heart throb that you have spent the evening tripping the light fantastic with. You look over and find….sheer and utter horror.

The moral of the story is that you can have a fantastic time in the dark, but once the lights come on things may not be as wonderful as you thought.

I’ve spent a lot of time dancing in the dark with people who I thought were genuine, caring, and had a genuine interest in me as a person….Next time I have to remember to always carry my flashlight.

Sometimes the hardest part of life is knowing when it’s time to leave the dance floor and find a new club.
