Dance Magic Dance

Wednesday night, at the Concert on the Square, I was sitting near a group with a little girl of nt quite 5. The concert ended with music from Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty. The girl danced around to both pieces, displaying an amazing degree of natural grace and rhythm. Her dance was very unself-conscious and a joy to watch, and at the end, at least half of the applause in our area was from people who had been watching her.

I started thinking about Reviving Ophelia, and I prayed that that little girl would always be able to dance with that much joy and abandon. I pray that as she grows up, no one will be able to stifle the dancer she is.
