Thankful for Dance


As we approach Thanksgiving Day, I am sure many of you have been reflecting the blessings in your lives that you are grateful for, as I have been.

I am sincerely thankful for this great nation, our freedom, and the military which shaped my life.  More, I am thankful for all the brave men and women who serve and sacrifice, as I did, to protect American life and liberty.

I am thankful for my precious family, friends, and students.

And, I am thankful for one of the greatest of these many blessings – the gift of dance.

Dance has brought richness to my life.

Dance healed my body after suffering war injuries.
Dance ignited a new passion and purpose within me when I had lost my inspiration.
Dance has brought many wonderful friends, colleagues, and students into my life that I would not otherwise have met.
Dance has paved the way for many travels and adventures.
Dance has stretched my mind with continuous learning.
Dance brought me my beautiful wife and amazing stepchildren.
My Thanksgiving wish for all of you is that dance will bless your lives as richly as it has blessed mine.  May this holiday week bring you and abundance of things to grateful be for.
 
Happy Thanksgiving!
