I grew up taking ballet lessons and every Christmas season I try to watch the Nutcracker. I love to watch the men dance. They leap soooooo high. Michael Jordan had nothing on Edward Valella so far as hang time is concerned. Edward V was my favorite male ballet dancer in the 70's. I still believe that he was much better than anything the Russians could produce. Edward V made ballet very masculine. Nureyev and Barishnikov were sissy's by comparison.
Anyway, I digress. Christmas comes with family and personal traditions. The Nutcracker is my personal tradition. I hope to see it live one day. I continue to speak about family traditions tomorrow.
So for today I'm grateful for:
1. Dance
2. Edward Valella
3. Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire
4. Christmas traditions
5. Christmas decorations
Plus the daily 7.
Till Tomorrow...
