Dora at Nationals next yr I may just have to room with ya. heheee Wink PARTY in LA

Sorry my dear, I don't live in LA so don't have a house there to stay in. Where in LA is it going to be? LA is very spread out, you can drive for hours and still be in LA. I will also have to have at least 5 couples dancing for me to go to a nationals. Not sure how many will be dancing. If I do have enough couples then sure we can have a party in LA.

I met with a woman who has the capacity (but the spirit??) to mentor today - I've known her for 10 years but only today did I ask for insight....

excellent, Elise!
Isn't it great when you discover things about people you've known for awhile and they can help you out?

I do think that is one of the big problems of today the mentors doesn't get asked to mentor.

Good for you for asking her.... Wink

Another great way to find answers is to ask for answer during your sleep. Pose the questions (only one question per night) and ask for a clear answer that you will understand and that you will remember in the morning.

I use this way of getting answers all the time. My mind might as well work while my body takes a rest.

What a good thought!  I will have to do that.  Lots of things to think over and make decisions on and "sleeping on it" is a great idea.

Lovely image, but sad. 
Sounds like the Wilis from "Giselle", although I doubt you have been betrayed in love by a faithless man.

Is there a male equivalent of Wilis? Sybills?  Shepherds?

Not in Giselle, there wasn't. 
But I am sure there is a male equivalent for those men who died because of a love gone bad.

I am looking for a good mentor, we have a few couples at our school that are very encouraging but have yet to take us under their wing to mentor us....But will see what happens.
