\nWhat happens when we meet the parts of ourselves we've kept out of view, and let them dance with the parts that we're more comfortable showing other people? What happens when we're willing to welcome the parts in others we usually try to push away? And what creativity and possibility open when we give up trying to control one another so that instead we can meet one another fully?\xa0A conversation about the gifts of finding 'the other' in ourselves, and ourselves in the other, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

\nSomeone dancing inside us\xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0has learned only a few steps:
\nthe "Do-Your-Work" in 4/4 time,\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0the "What-Do-You-Expect" Waltz.
\nHe hasn't noticed yet the woman\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0standing away from the lamp.
\nThe one with black eyes\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0who knows the rumba
\nand strange steps in jumpy rhythms\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0from the mountains of Bulgaria.
\nIf they dance together,\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0something unexpected will happen;
\nif they don't, the next world\xa0 \xa0 \xa0
\n\xa0 \xa0will be a lot like this one.
