Oh, my!!! Thanksgiving has come and gone! This weekend signals the time when everyone begins to look forward to Christmas. It is such a festive time, and fun to see all the beautiful lights and smiling faces. It is a time to remember why we celebrate the Christmas holiday.
December also brings a close to another year. It is a time to celebrate this wonderful holiday, and appreciate our many blessings. One of those blessings is our freedom. December 7th is approaching, and was a turning point in our history. It changed the world. A big thank you to our brave men and women who have served, and are serving around the world so that we may remain FREE!!! I salute you!!!
November 29th will mark the beginning of my winter season in Mesa. It is exciting to know that we will finally resume square dancing after being in hiatus since March 13, 2020. All the halls were closed on that date, and it truly was Friday the 13th. I cannot wait to see who is here, and to renew old friendships. See the Arizona Schedule on my web site for times and places.
As we look forward to this Christmas season, let's take time to reflect on the past 18 months. Covid 19 also changed our world. However, it has taught us lessons about ourselves as well. Most of us have learned that we have a NEED for the friendships we have made through square dancing. My hope is that we will cherish those friendships even more as we get back to dancing. Dust off your dancing shoes. The music will soon be playing again. LET'S DANCE!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS, and May God bless you all.
