How can we know the danger from the dance?
How do you recognize the difference between what is good for you and bad for you? Does fun mean bad? Does safe mean good?
How do you balance security and risk? When is it best to tread carefully? When should you throw caution to the wind?
How do you evaluate your need and their need? When do you sacrifice yourself for the good of someone else? When do your sacrifices border enabling?
Living only for our own comfort is the worst kind of extravagance; and truly brings no satisfaction in the end. And a life of consistently compromising ourselves to accommodate the agendas of others only serves to annihilate us and the gifts we could share with the world.
Can we ever really know the danger from the dance? I don’t think we can. At least not until our decisions finally play themselves out. But a really good indicator that we’re making the right decision may be to question our motives for the choices we make.
Am I acting from a place of love or am I acting from a place of fear?
