...because I think I found GOD at the club. When I was younger I used to attempt to dodge Sunday school by claiming that if GOD were everywhere surely he was in my bedroom and I could sleep in and pray to him after breakfast. Needless to say, my mother was less than pleased. Fastforward about 20 years....
I was dancing into the wee hours of the morning at a club. Soaked with sweat, intoxicated by the rhythms & bass. I had allowed myself to fully drink in the pleasure of the music and the oneness my body felt with it. High on life, I felt divine! Fastforward another 9 years and I find myself experiencing a block while writing a comedy show. A musical show about life. I prayed to GOD to help me find my way. Soon enough the notion to dance came to me. I turned on Pandora and it's already on one of my favorite club music stations. I keep it there and dance. All of a sudden I am transported to the many times I have danced without a care in the world. I fully surrender to the music and the stories my body wants to remember. Then....within 20 minutes the remaining parts of an hour long one woman show are written. So I say yes... GOD IS EVERYWHERE!
