dance

I figured out what's wrong with society.  Nobody dances anymore.  Seriously.  Dancing used to be so much of our culture.  Sock hops, the Virginia Wheel, big band, tango.. nobody does it anymore.  Dance has existed since the dawn of civilization -- even if was to the pounding of drums around a fire.

We are missing out.  Dance is so much more than shaking your butt.  What a sad decline dance has suffered.  It has been replaced by Friday and Saturday nights of watching empty television shows stuffing our faces with potato chips.

Music and dance defines humanity.  Why are we so willingly letting it go like it's no big deal?  It's like saying it's OK for somebody to rip your soul out and be expected to go on business as usual.
