Happy Dance - International Edition
« on: September 05, 2008, 08:04:41 am »
This link was sent to me by my sister, it is a video that is also on YouTube, by a guy named Matt who travels the world and films people dancing. It is a bit like a home made version of that Coke commercial teaching the world to sing.

If you have been reading or watching too much news, and wonder where the world is headed, or what is to become of us all in this day and age, it may brighten your day.

Enjoy.

Steve

Steve: 

This guy has a lot of energy! :D

Thanks for the link.  Besides being funny and entertaining it does remind us of our shared humanity, which is so easy to forget these days with identity politics and sharp religious and cultural difference being negatively manifested, worldwide. 

 Have a good weekend.  :)

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

I discover this video a few months ago when someone sent it to me.  His website was very interesting about how he got Stride gum to pay for his travels.  Thanks for sharing.  It was fun watching it again.

Hi Steve -
I tried to watch this last night and couldn't get it to load but obviously was successful tonight.  This was lots of fun to watch, if it wasn't so late I would have turned up the volume and done the Happy Dance too! 

Thanks,
Wendy
