Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Sublime | Christie Fordham

Dancing! What a wonderful word. There is nothing like getting a partner and grooving out on the dance floor. Tuesday night while eating free fried chicken provided by the school I watched a few couples swing dance out on the floor. They looked so happy and excited as they moved their way across the area. People interacting with eachother and having a good time while doing it is entirely sublime.

I was feeling sorry for myself until my friend Mike asked me to dance. Mike is a wonderful dancer and I always have a good time when I'm dancing with him. Maybe because it's a challenge for me, but either way, trying to follow and dance correctly is always a thrill. It's a wonderful feeling when I finally get the steps right and dance smoothly. It's not just any dancing. It's dancing with a partner and being successful.

Wow, I didn't even think of that. Dancing really is a sublime thing. I absolutely love it. It draws me somehow. The way that a body can move to express emotion and thought, it's uncanny. Hey, two things in one. But really I completely agree with you. Dancing is truly amazing, and it makes you feel so - alive, when you are moving and you are a part of the music. It's simply awesome.
