How did we get here?

I work at my church's daycare. And I love it. I started about a month ago. Recently I ordered three CDs from Amazon.com. When I first get a CD, I like to listen to it everywhere I go. The perfect amount of listening is when I can sing along and know some of the words. I am not at that point yet with my new CDs. So how do these two facts coincide? I have been bringing the CDs to work. I love putting them in and watching as the little one year olds start dancing to David Crowder. As I was laughing and nodding my head along, I thought to myself...how do we get to this point? When is it in life that we just stop dancing? These little kids around me were loving life and moving along to the beat of the song. Why is it that teens or adults don't do that? What happened that made us stop being so free? It made me think of that song from Fee, I am free. One of the lines in that song says, I am free to dance. To me, dancing is just a letting go. A chance to let loose whatever is holding us back. I don't know if any of these thoughts make sense or how they go together, but I was thinking about the simplicity of these little boys and how I, at 19 years old, am missing that. All this to say, life is short. Sometimes you just have to be a little wild and not so serious. So next time when those little one year olds dance to my David Crowder CD, I think I will be dancing right along with them.
