sometimes this darkness is confusion, other times, it’s trials of health, faith, grief, or sorrow. something that can help tremendously is a special sisterhood relationship. a gift, when it happens within one’s family, but even more powerful at times can be that bond of sisterhood found in unexpected places. when that friendship sparks and grows, we can see more clearly as a group through the darkness, we can bear the burdens together with our combined strength, and we can collectively accomplish the seemingly impossible. the dance team depicted did just that. they faced pandemic times together, supported one another, and danced through it all. that movement took them places physically, but also spiritually and mentally. dance can unite us as a group, but also with \u003cem\u003edivinity\u003c\/em\u003e. these girls and their teacher showed their families, studio, community, and even those beyond that we can find joy and fulfillment in the darkest times of our mortal journey. may they continue to find this joy, peace \u0026amp; love together, and continually share it with everyone around them. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan
