Today was the last day of our retreat. Its a hard thing to say goodbye to these ladies who Ive gotten so close to. We are all going to Antigua together so I feel like its not exactly saying goodbye yet.
This evening we did a dancing ceremony which was SO fun! This woman came and led it who was such a beautiful young spirit. She started out the night by handing out Glitter!!! I was so happy; it was the best thing ever. All of us had glitter everywhere so we sparkled as we moved. This woman played this tribal, EDM, irish infused shit that was so bad ass and the speakers even had colorful lights. It made us all want to move. We all just frolicked around this candle-lit open space without any judgement or care in the world! It was the best movement/dancing of my life because I felt like I could be myself, completely myself, without worrying about what others thought or feeling that I should "look cool". Each woman there had her own style of dancing and completely let it go. I loved looking around the room at everyone and I had this intense feeling of happiness because these are such beautiful women.
We danced for a long time and each one of us took our turn laying down and dancing. Even while I was sitting/laying to catch my breath, I would move my hands or arms to the music. It was such a magical experience and I hope to be able to do something like this again.
When we were done with our dancing ceremony, we closed our woman's writing circle with a four directions ceremony. Then we stood for awhile with our arms around one another. We all could not believe that this was ending. We had gotten so close. Ive never had such an amazing group of women to surround myself with like that before. I truly hope this is not the end of us. There is something we experienced together that will always keep us together.
