Dear Phyllis: I haven't thanked you for all your daily inspirational poems and thoughts that start my day. Today's was very special but so many of them are and I have been neglectful in thanking you. I save them in a file so I can go back to them. God bless you!

Not sure what to make of the lyrics with the dance -- when you're down down down? Meaning, when we're depressed, or homeless, or "old." Or any/all of the above? Or am I making too much of this, looking for context? Yes, of course, it's about being in our bodies and joyful, the power of dance and of ourselves to transform and be transformed. And that is wonderful, and the video is wonderful. May I suggest another take on dancing when old -- Betti Franceschi's photographs on "ageless dancers." Full disclosure, my sister is among them. https://www.bettifranceschi.com/agelessdancers.htm

Fabulous! This will change my day! I often dance just around the house and every chance I get, celebrating the little things, moving to music because I can't stand still when there is music playing, and I plan to continue that practice as long as my body can keep up. Thanks so much for sharing this, Phyllis!
