Church is complicated here, at least if you’re me. There’s clapping, singing, and swaying, all with these cool multiple rhythms that are completely beyond me. Usually I can manage two out of three, either singing and swaying or clapping and swaying. All three together will take more practice.
One Sunday I was doing pretty well. I could see a woman that was clapping nice and loudly, so I could follow her clap and her sway. I even sang a few words. Feeling pretty good about myself, I went up when it was my turn in the offering. That entails a kind of shuffling dance/walk and singing at the same time. I had it down! So, up the aisle I went. Until it was time to put my offering in the basket. I caused a 7 woman fender bender as people bumped into me.
Was I just paranoid the next week when I noticed a BIG space between me and the woman behind me when it was time for the offering? I’ll get it right one of these days…
Nora, you’re not alone. This is SO something I would do! 🙂
“a 7 woman fender bender” – I get the giggles every time I picture it!
didn’t a similar incidence occur with dancing with the Rock Run Singles Group in the JJC cafeteria??
