Some of the Alumni are planning a dance in Sept. a week after the Alumni Lunch. I am always glad to get together with my friends and I am supporting both events. I am also hoping that a bunch of people show up at each one.
However, dancing does have concerns for me. First there is the fact that I do not know how to dance. I have never got up on a dance floor and danced. I have never done so publicly. Never do so with a partner.
The second thing is how will that affect my marriage. I am not talking about affecting my wife because I am not having secret rendezvous with anyone or going out of town to spend time in a motel with anyone. I am talking about how will dancing affect my attitude towards my marriage. Is stepping out on a dance floor with someone no different from twirling around the living room with my granddaughter or something more?
I don't have the answers to this one and since I have not experienced this, then I cannot draw upon my past either. As far as getting the answer from the Bible, that can go either way. I believe David either danced with other women or danced in a matter that exposed himself to other women while The Ark Of The Covenant was returning to Jerusalem and God was pleased even if Michal wasn't.
