Keeping to My Word

It's 2:43 but I promised myself I would update this thing daily and try my best not to let circumstances delay me! So here I am!! I just came back from an AMAZING night of line/swing dancing with some very dear friends of mine. It was so much fun! It pretty much always is... but still! It was such a blessing to see them all. I am continually reminded how absolutely blessed I am in friendships. Thank you so much God!!!

Because I can't really talk about my main good deed for the say because it would violate HIPPA (the confidentially agreement in medicine)... I have to just talk about a smaller good deed instead! Today I was able to choose love by dancing with someone that I didn't particularly want to dance with. I am all game for dancing with absolutely anyone to two-step or swing... however the DJ played a song that was meant to be kind of a club-style dance. Clubs style dancing makes me SO uncomfortable!!!! But some older gentleman asked me to dance-- so I accepted! Now before it sounds like I was iffy on my morals to please someone else... that wasn't the case. He was a really nice older man and we just step touched to the music in our own ways with a healthy amount of distance between each other. However, I really feel like it was important to him that I said yes. He was so respectful! I danced with him later to a two-step and we were talking and he mentioned that he just moved to the area and it was only the second time being there. He said that moved into the area after his wife passed away. He said that this has been one of the best nights he has had since her passing almost a year ago. I was so honored that he chose to share that information with me. He was such a lovely person. I am so glad that although I was not super comfortable with dancing to the first song, I listened to what my heart was telling me to do and said yes. I think it made both of our nights in the end.
