Keep on Dancing..

Joyce will be 13 this Friday, that got me thinking back to Silke at that age and remembering ..... 

"Keep on dancing
Like it was the last thing you did in your life
Keep on dancing
You're gonna have to sacrifice
Keep on dancing
And dance with a beautiful smile
Keep on dancing, dancing
Dance for the rest of your life."

Plenty of dancing, optimism and symbolism in this video from George Harrison. 

Leaving home for the first time (shrouded by fog), being off balance and wondering which direction to go (middle of the street on the double yellow lines), letting go of our childish ways (playground), growing in the sunshine (the garden), first love then lit by sunlight (forbidden forest), first real boyfriend and dancing into the future with optimism, idealism and hope.

(The video was made by fans and the Harrison estate selected the best of the entries. This was the one that won. Doesn't get much better than this down memory lane even if the hair colour is wrong and the dancing is not quite as good as Silke's in those days.)
