I’m a nut

This is in response to the dancing guy commentary posted by @sivers.  Thanks Derek! It is very encouraging, to a nut like me, that this information be provided to potential followers.

I am a nut.  There is no doubt about it, just ask my ex-girlfriend.  I’m more than willing to embarrass myself to make my dream come true, of that there is little doubt.  See my last post, for an example.  I have yet to lead a movement, or a crowd, as dancing guy did, but the time is coming.  Who knows maybe you’ll be my “first” follower?

I highly relate to dancing guy as a leader, because I also enjoy dancing.  I found it very helpful to get advice on how the nut has to keep it simple enough, so a “first follower” has a chance.  If a nut goes for broke, with all the skill he has, they end up a lone freak.  No one can keep up, let alone join in.  This is how I like to dance in nightclubs or on tree stumps in fractal forest. :-)

I’ve been lucky or persistent enough(I can’t tell which) to find my passion and a path has sprung up in front of me.  I’ve been dancing along it, with more and more awareness, for the past 5-6 years, training myself in the way of the nut.  A vision of peace has settled around me that is so moving, I can no longer deny I am on this path and I need others to join me, or I risk becoming a lone freak.

My dance, both at the club and in life, has been largely unfollowable, until recently.  I am working on making it simple enough that others feel comfortable joining in, but it requires a mastery and ease that I am still developing.  I really need to start making videos.  I hope to have a first experiment done in the next month.

Are you a nut, first follower, momentum builder, crowd member, or fence sitter?

Thanks for reading!

    Here’s my best nuttiness so far: http://g-a-i-a.org/inspiration/dancing-devil-sunset Still working on finding that first follower, though I am in talks with a potential partner. I think he’ll leave the dancing up to me though. :-)
