Day 239 - Tuesday 26th August

“Gracefulness has been defined to be the outward expression of the inward harmony of the soul.” - William Hazlitt (1778-1830); writer, essayist, literary critic

Oh I am not very graceful at all and never have been. If ever I have tried aerobic classes or to follow someone else’s instructions for dancing, I am all over the place.
I think I am quite uncoordinated, which probably stems from being hopeless with my left and rights. On my driving test, every time the instructor said turn right, I had to inconspicuously lift my right fingers (I knew this to be my right hand as this is the hand that I write with and my Mum says I am right handed!!!).
If ever I am in a group dancing, I am always going in a different direction to everyone else. I don’t think I agree that this reflects the harmony in my soul as I am quite a calm person and don’t get very stressed in busy or difficult environments.

Love your take on the day and isn't it strange that I was the only one do do the right dance steps in ballet class. Everyone else got it wrong, so I know where you are coming from on that score Claire. lol
Great photo:)
