      I am so sorry for your loss my dear, i hope your daughter dances and passes that love along and may your family's hearts be warmed forever by this song and many more songs of hope, love and perseverance. sending warm and loving energy to you and yours. I wish I could give you a great big hug and I hope the pain becomes a little bit more tolerable. I know that kind of pain lingers, but it's finding ways to live with that pain and not become consumed by it. I heard the most beautiful expression yesterday that brought me to tears while watching a movie and, in this movie, the widow says to her stepdaughter, telling her about her deceased love of her life "he wrapped a string of lights around my heart." I know that I am a complete stranger, but pain is something I am all too familiar with and anytime I hear about someone who has experienced a terrible tragedy, I cannot help but become overwhelmed with emotion because I don't just empathize, I am a highly sensitive empath and I just want so badly to help everyone I meet or hear about with their pain and let them know that even if we are strangers, I care and I wish I could heal their pain. I hope I haven't rambled on too much. May peace and love be with you and those that you love and may it protect you and them as well.

    I was crowned queen of our Alumni School last year at our reunion & a dear friend who had been in a wheel chair since 2010, unexpectedly rolled up to me & we danced while he was in that chair. It was memorable. Last week he was killed in his motorized wheelchair by a truck. With tears, I'm dedicating this song to him. You're truly dancing now, my friend.

      ...but those back up vocals are so haunting to a woman about to break 40, when she's struggling to not regret parts of her past and is worried she doesn't have much of a future left before the next trip to the hospital leads to an obituary...

    The craziest thing about this song is it came only months before I was born (May of 2000, I was born in October). My parents always tell me that on the day I was born, Lee Ann was actually singing this song on tv in a nearby room. That alone made this song special to me as I grew up. Today I officially turned 20 years old, and although it is crazy to think how much the world has changed in those 20 years, it is better to focus on how great of a life mine will become in the future. God bless you all and stay safe.

    My mom Loved to dance. I certainly hope and pray she is now dancing with my dad in heaven. She's waited 32 years to finally join him. I will continue to dance here on earth to keep both their memories alive. They have given me the precious gift of the love of music, song and dance, even if it is amateur. I love singing and dancing all the same! Keep on dancing Mom and Dad! I love you!

    " I hope you dance" is tattooed on my right foot. My Mom gave me this advice when I suddenly lost the hearing in my left ear...15 minute "episode" and it was gone and I was left with the constant snowy tv sound in my head. I was a RN and prayed it would not change my career. It didnt... 15 years later my brain has taught my ears to listen in stereo again. The human body and mind are amazing. I thank my Mom for not letting me give up and keep listening to the music. Never stop dancing🙏

    This song is motivational. Basically tells you to keep moving forward no matter what. When life gets hard give faith a chance to make life better for you. And when the opportunity comes take it full on. There will be mountains (obstacles) but don't be afraid keep going never give up but give faith a fighting chance. Always stay hungry and keep growing. Mom hopes you never had to go thru tough times but those tough times is what makes you who you are.
    I wish much success and prosperity to everyone reading this, no matter what you do in life. Stay hungry for more, take the path least traveled and keep faith burning

    I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
    You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
    May you never take one single breath for granted,
    God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
    I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
    I hope you dance... I hope you dance...
    I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
    Never settle for the path of least resistance,
    Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin',
    Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin',
    Don't let some Hell bent heart leave you bitter,
    When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
    Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
    I hope you dance... I hope you dance.
    I hope you dance... I hope you dance.
    (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
    Tell me who wants to look back on their years
    And wonder where those years have gone.)

Then the other month I found myself awake in the small hours, in bed, after being forced into bankruptcy, parted from my wife, 44 years old with no kids and no money, at rock bottom in my life. Somehow this song popped up and I played it over and over all night, balling my eyes out in tears. Not my usual genre but a great song is a great song.
