Very thought provoking… like a person need to enjoy life now because who knows when that place may be ultimately missing you?😔

Beautiful. Wishing for freedom and peace for Ukraine too. My dance teachers are Ukranian and they have told me stories of bombs in their neighborhoods before they came to the US and it breaks my heart...one of my teachers is only 22, two years older than my oldest son, and I can't imagine bombs falling from the sky in my neighborhood and having to flee to another country...it's unfathomable to me and I honestly do not understand the purpose of this war, or any war.
