The Dance of Truth – The Tandav

Today she danced in front of the mirror . While dancing , she undressed herself .

She wanted to feel her own self to the fullest .

Shivanshi had faced many traumas since childhood – craved for the time of parents, a bandoned by the person whom she truly loved, a date rape, marital rape. severe anxiety and depression and what not. Today she remembered how she had cried like hell in that dark room. All this pain had left her in the traumatic state and fighting this trauma had made her mentally very strong but the trauma had stored in the body .

That anger and anguish had to vent out somehow but she thought of giving love to heself. As she undressed herself and danced and looked herself in the mirror , she caressed her own body and she realised that she needed and craved for love . she craved for love and warmth – a tender touch , a gentle smile , a warm hug – thats all.

This dance was the dance of truth , it was Tandav . It was the dance of truth. Today she was Shiva herself.

Dear all, this is not some psychic piece of fiction . It is symbolic of how we ignore ourselves in the process of living mundane life. Take care and take a note of your needs before these needs express themselves in the form of fierce Tandav.
