"Dancing for me -- all my life I've been dancing -- it was always a social kind of thing. And now that I look back in retrospect, I know that whenever I was unhappy, not feeling well, or depressed, I would dance. I usually danced around a table. And now that I have more knowledge, the concept of dancing around a table -- table -- circle -- circle is completion, circle is wholeness, 360 degrees, that kind of thing, but the music and the movement around the table and around the table -- when I finished I always felt great. So now I say that was a form of unconscious therapy, but all I knew was that I felt raised; I felt lifted. So I loved to dance all of a sudden. It became my life". -- Dr. Barbara Ann Teer, Black Drama (1973).

Gen X lady of leisure who loves to dance and write goofy short stories.  Y’all hug a dog and enjoy a popsicle.
