So right now I'm in Peru! During my time here, I've had the opportunity to take Salsa dancing lessons and apply my lessons at different parties and clubs. It seems like all they dance here is Salsa, and all their music matches perfectly. Dancing is big here. Last night, I watched a movie set in Ireland. I had seen this movie before, but last night, I guess since being immersed in the Peruvian culture for the past couple of weeks, it really struck me how different each country's culture is. There was Irish riverdancing instead of Salsa, meaning people danced in circles instead of pairs. There were radically different instruments and different sounding songs and different people. It made me want to watch an interaction between a person who had grown up in Ireland and one who had grown up in Peru. And then I thought of how many people groups, how many cultures, how many different types of music we will meet and see and hear in Heaven. I thought about all the dancing that will be happening there, all the Salsa and Riverdancing and what have you. And I got excited about having eternity to learn all the dances and languages and cultures that have ever excited. I even got excited about all the different kinds of food we'll be eating because hopefully in Heaven I'll love every bite of whatever is served to me.
