The History of the Dance

Ya know, it has been almost four years since I started dancing and I have never once went to the trouble to learn the history of the dance I love so much.  Well, now I did :) Just a few minutes ago, and boy, Irish dance has a history.  Since what I found was a lot, and since I don't really know how to summarize all of it, I decided to give you the links:

Keep On

We all feel overwhelmed
At one time
Or another

We all think it's impossible
Sometimes

But the key to not letting it destroy you

Is to keep dreaming

Keep imagining

Keep reaching to a star

Keep believing in your ability to shine


Keep dancing


Keep dancing,

And you'll get there

Someday

Someday soon
