DANCE!!!!

YOU ASK ME TO DANCE AND YOU KNOW I'M A DANCING MACHINE{Kings of Leon} Its rare i quote phrases or song lyrics in my writings..However i felt it to be appropriate for this piece...My last blog was written in a haze of Chianti....So when i reread it the next day it didn't come out how i had it in my head...it seemed off track..it wasn't how i wanted it but it is what it was so lets move on...next day next week different blog different lessons ..New day..okay so i was thinking of writing and was searching for a topic and my mind went back to a reception i witnessed a couple of months past!!!at one point in the reception after eating way to much Mexican food and drinking tequila not only at the reception but also at an English pub on the way in which we stopped to have a Guinness use the restroom and catch a few minutes of a soccer game ..well as we waited for the clock to turn and sipped our Guinness i ordered a quick shot of cuervo gold before we left and this is unusual for me cuz i don't favor tequila..however after my quick shot of poison we strolled a few blocks over to the reception and were greeted with chips salsa and yep..you guessed it Tequila!!! Well as my better half chatted with her friends i being the instant social guy when tequila is factored in..well i loosened up..i walked around with one of the husbands of one of the friends and we drank Mexican beers and more tequila..i wasn't drunk was the thing..i was happy and stress free and walked over as the DJ was just finished setting up and put on his first record!! i glanced around and people where migrating to the dance floor...see I'm not much for churches or forgive me hardcore church types..so earlier while at the wedding i judged the crowd to be not boring but maybe very traditional!!! So i told myself nothing new to see there but i was in a great mood and my soon to be wife was happy too and that is one of my favorite scenarios..i depend on..i need it...i know its selfish but when shes happy I'm happier..so as i peered through the reception at the crowd rushing to the dance floor i found myself actually submerged in a small sea of the young ,old,middle aged strangers..i looked for a path back to the bar but found none..i looked to my left and my girl and her friend where beside me apparently watching the excited crowd!!! The dj then dropped the needle and the lights went black then colored lighting swirled the dance floor...the music started and i was directly in front of a group of teenagers and kids as young as two or three....a circle formed and one of the little kids swayed into the middle and showed his stuff....right AFTER HIM, ANOTHER KID A BIT OLDER SPRUNG INTO THE CIRCLE AND SHOWED SOME PRETTY IMPRESSIVE MOVES OBVIOUSLY LEARNED BUT VERY NATURAL ALSO..HE WAS TALENTED...NEXT WAS PROBABLY HIS SISTER THEN ANOTHER YOUNGER GIRL AND MORE KIDS...AT ONE POINT I SAW THE BRIDE IN THE CIRCLE FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN A VERY SMALL CHILD OF ABOUT 2 HOBBLED ABOUT IN THE CIRCLE AND EVERYONE SMILED AND CHEERED.....I SCANNED FACES AND EVERYONE WAS HAPPY AND THEN IT HAPPENED...THE DJ MIXED IN A COLLAGE OF SONGS THAT BROUGHT THE CIRCLE TOGETHER AND HIS RECORDING OF A EXPLOSION VIBRATED THE FLOOR AS I WITNESSED THE TEENS TURN TO THE YOUNGER KIDS AND SMILE AND DANCE YOUTHFULLY AND I WAS IN AWE OF PEOPLE CELEBRATING LIFE!!! THAT'S WHEN I TOLD MYSELF THAT'S WHAT IT WAS THEY WERE CELEBRATING LIFE!!I TOO DANCED THAT NIGHT BUT DON'T REMEMBER MUCH OF IT CUZ IT WASN'T ABOUT ME OR MY DANCE..IT WAS JUST CELEBRATING LIFE THROUGH DANCE!!IF IT HAD BEEN ABOUT ME OR MY NIGHT OUT TO DANCE OR ABOUT SOMETHING I WAS TO CLOSELY IN TOUCH WITH I WOULDN'T HAVE WITNESSED THE WHOLE SCENARIO..I WOULDN'T HAVE ENJOYED IT CUZ ID OF BEEN TO INVOLVED OR UPTIGHT OR STRESSED BUT IT WAS OTHER PEOPLES LIFE'S AND CELEBRATIONS I WITNESSED!! I HAVE ALWAYS DANCED..MANY DIFFERENT PLACES MANY DIFFERENT DANCES...THERE'S JUST NO BAD TIME TO DANCE!!!ITS THERAPY..IN THE LAST TWO DAYS I WATCHED MY FIANCE DANCE DOWN THE ISLE OF A STORE WE WERE SHOPPING IN..THEN LAST NIGHT I WAS SITTING AT MY COMPUTER AND WATCHED MY SON DANCE FROM THE BATHROOM ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE HALL TO HIS ROOM AND I SMILED!! ITS A CONNECTION..IT ATTRACTS PEOPLE TO EACH OTHER AND IT BRINGS COMFORT TO SITUATIONS AT ANY GIVEN TIME!!! I NEVER CARED TOO MUCH ABOUT WEDDINGS OR THOSE TYPES OF THINGS TIL I WITNESSED THE DANCING WHILE AT A MUCH MORE EVOLVED POINT IN MY LIFE...IN TWO MONTHS I GET TO DANCE WITH MY WIFE AND SHE KNOWS I'M A DANCING MACHINE!!!
