Dancing

         Our lives are structured in a way that everyone is very different--some people are poor, some people are rich, some people are fat, some people are skinny, some people are into cooking, some people aren't, some people are young, some people are old. We judge each other based on these differences. In some ways, it's good to be different. However, in other ways, it's healthy to find things that connect all of us, so we aren't always focused on what separates us. Identifying a commonality between people is a good way to bring people closer together. And one thing that connects almost all of us is an ability and a love to dance.
         Dance, in some ways, can be compared to a lake. Just like almost everyone likes a good lake, everyone likes to dance. There are no age requirements to swim in a lake. Similarly, there are no age requirements to dancing.
         There are few people who don't have a good time while dancing, just while there are few people who don't have fun when they're around a lake. Unless you are fishing and you get in a big fight over who gets to keep the fish, but that is another story for another day. But usually, if you find yourself in this kind of situation, the person who has the most children should keep the fish. This way, they can feed their children with the fish. 
         Anyways, the main point is, dance is a universal language that brings people together and makes them happy. In these videos, the smiles and laughter that can be created by dancing become evident, no matter the age of the dancer. 



Which video was your favorite? And if you were given the opportunity to just dance with a bunch of babies, would you take it? And since we know the answer is yes to that last question, which song would you choose?

I just love how you write - you're very funny - I just want to keep reading more! The videos that you included in your blog are hysterical (yes, music and dancing are universal) - I think I like the first video the best. I hope you keep blogging, you've got a real talent for it!
