Thanks for the Chat, Dad. :)

I had a really great conversation with my dad this morning. I was feeling frustrated about a few things in my life, and it felt great to talk with my dad about it. Along with advice and insight, he shared some of his experiences of when he was my age. That meant a lot, and helped me a lot.

I also learned, from a side comment, that not much has changed when it comes to good dance parties. My dad mentioned that during college he and his friends enjoyed going to dances, where they made long dancing trains of people (conga line, if you will), and would sometimes gather in a large circle to watch people get in the center and do crazy dance moves. That's been my experience with dance parties, so not much has changed these past couple of decades!

I am grateful for this morning's conversation with my dad, especially the insight and encouragement he provided by talking about his own college years. It helped to know that he went through the same general issues I;m going through now. :)
