"Why don't you dance like a robot?"
OMG this is what i am talking about. what i particularly love about this video is...everything!
i miss kids, and seeing this little girl and her father in action reminds me why children are wonderful. would her father have danced like a robot if she hadn't asked him to? probably not, at least not in that moment. who could possibly resist dancing to that little drum beat?
*sigh*
why can't we all be like this for each other? co-creating, encouraging joy, being silly...i've been thinking a lot about how everything we love will be gone some day, but we must love what is fleeting and love with this understanding.
this moment is gone.
and this moment is gone too.
where is the possibility of joy for children whose needs are not met, whether by neglect, poverty, war, violence, oppression, etc.? i'm beginning to realize just how radical LOVE really is and that it asks to transform our lives, to love what dies, and to enter into creation.
you wanna dance like a robot?
