I hope you dance...
Jul. 5th, 2008 12:13 pmI know everyone's seen this by now, and while it's not Discovery Channel, Stride gum isn't exactly free from corporate self-interest.... And for all I know Matt may be a total schmuck.
But the freaking thing still makes me cry every single time I watch it. For the courage it takes to travel, to dance badly, and to ask other people to dance with you. For a world that can be both so large and so small at the same time. For each of us, alone, in the hopes that we can be a little less alone for a little while. For a day that celebrates USian independence, in hopes that it will one day celebrate our interdependence as well.
