For the last couple years I have been a member of a mens group. Mostly we meet and discuss things and support each other through good times and less good times and the transitions between them. Tonight we met to help one of the group pack for moving. This fellow has been in a wonderful house for 25+ years and it is now time for him to sell the house and move on to new adventures. While there are some positives in moving on, this is a night based in sadness even though the spirit in the room is quite cheerful. We sing theme songs from old movies, get up to date with each others recent developments and actually do get 20 or so boxes packed. He is a friend and also a dancer. He passes on to me a small book with a CD in it, ‘I Hope You Dance’. I am not sure I know of a C&W song that hits the spot so well. We all just keep dancing through good times and bad.

Dear Frank - I hope you dance too! So glad to hear that you're up to helping someone move. Sending love and looking forward to seeing you keep on dancing.
