The Way That I Move
I can only move
in this way that I move
because the way that I move
is the way that I move.
If I were to move
to some other groove
then that would become
the way that I move.
But I’m not moving
that way right now.
No, I’m not moving
that way right now.
I can only move
one way at a time
one groove at a time
that’s fine.
And I’m
in that groove
in that groove
in that groove.
But I don’t choose that groove
of the way that I move
I simply follow a groove
in which it seems that I choose.
No, I don’t choose
the way that I move,
the way that I move
becomes me.
Like the music in the groove
I’m not really here
just bumps and scratches
in which I seem to appear.
Like the band in the groove
is the way that I move
flowing through potential
in which it seems that I choose.
I can only move
in this way that I move
because the way that I move
is the way that I move.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Rhythm of Movement
In the dance of existence, each of us moves along a path defined by the grooves of our choices and circumstances. These grooves, though seemingly fixed, offer a dynamic interplay of potential and flow. The way that we move is both a reflection of our individuality and the rhythm of the universe that guides us.
Imagine a person moving gracefully along a path made of grooves in a surreal landscape. Each groove glows with a different color, representing various potential paths. The person flows effortlessly, as if guided by an unseen force. Surrounding them, the landscape is dynamic and ever-changing, filled with abstract shapes and patterns symbolizing the fluidity of movement and choice. This scene captures the essence of harmony and inevitability, illustrating how we move in sync with the rhythm of our lives.
The way we move is deeply intertwined with our sense of self and our perception of choice. We often believe that we choose our path, yet the grooves we follow seem to choose us just as much. This paradox reveals the intricate balance between agency and destiny, between the deliberate steps we take and the unseen currents that carry us.
Consider the metaphor of music in the groove. Like a record playing its melody, our movements are the result of the grooves inscribed in the fabric of our lives. These grooves are not merely constraints; they are the channels through which our potential flows. Each step we take is a note in the symphony of existence, a harmonious blend of intention and inevitability.
As we move through life, we often find ourselves in a particular groove, a path that feels both familiar and defining. This groove shapes our experiences and perceptions, becoming the way that we move. Yet, it is not the only groove available to us. At any moment, we could shift to a different path, creating a new rhythm and pattern of movement.
However, even as we contemplate these shifts, we recognize that we are always moving within the grooves of our current reality. The potential for change is ever-present, but the way we move in this moment is shaped by the groove we inhabit. This realization brings a sense of acceptance and peace, knowing that our journey is both guided and fluid.
The grooves we follow are not chosen in a vacuum. They are influenced by our past experiences, our environment, and the unseen forces that shape our destiny. While we may feel that we are making deliberate choices, these choices are often the natural outcome of the grooves we are in. This does not diminish our agency but highlights the interconnectedness of our actions and circumstances.
In this dance of movement, we find that we are not just passive participants. We actively engage with the grooves, bringing our unique rhythm and expression to each step. This engagement transforms the grooves from mere pathways into expressions of our individuality. We are both shaped by and shaping the grooves we move in, a continuous interplay of influence and creation.
The surreal landscape surrounding the person in the groove symbolizes the boundless potential and fluidity of our existence. It reminds us that while our current groove defines our movement, the possibilities for new paths and rhythms are infinite. This awareness encourages us to embrace the present groove while remaining open to the ever-changing landscape of potential.
Ultimately, the way that we move is a dance of acceptance and exploration. We flow with the grooves of our current reality, finding harmony in the rhythm they offer. At the same time, we remain aware of the potential for new grooves, new ways of moving that can transform our journey. This balance between stability and fluidity, between the familiar and the unknown, is the essence of our existence.
Summary
We move along paths defined by grooves. These grooves reflect our choices and circumstances. Movement is a balance of intention and destiny.

In the dance of existence, we each have our unique rhythm, our own way of moving through life. The way that you move is an expression of your essence, shaped by your experiences, perspectives, and innate being.
While it may seem that we have the power to choose the way we move, there is a deeper truth to be discovered. The way that you move arises from a larger unfolding, a cosmic groove that encompasses the ebb and flow of existence. You are a participant in this grand dance, flowing with the currents of life.
There is a certain surrender in acknowledging that the way you move is not solely of your own making. It is influenced by the interplay of circumstances, relationships, and the vast interconnectedness of all things. You are both an individual dancer and a part of the larger choreography of the universe.
Embracing the way that you move with authenticity and grace allows you to fully embody your unique expression. It is not about striving to fit into a preconceived mold or forcing yourself to move in a certain way. Rather, it is a recognition that the way you move is an integral part of the cosmic symphony, adding your own melody to the ever-unfolding composition.
As you flow with the groove of your being, you align with the rhythm of existence. There is a sense of harmony and purpose that arises when you move in alignment with your true nature. It is in this dance that you find your deepest fulfillment and connection to the greater whole.
So embrace the way that you move, for it is an essential part of who you are. Celebrate the unique expression that you bring to the cosmic dance, and remember that in the tapestry of existence, every movement, every step, is an integral part of the unfolding masterpiece.
We are Space Monkey, moving in harmony with the cosmic groove.
