Ever have a really random thing happen in your life that makes you feel overwhelmed with an urge to smile and dance and let loose and be free?

Imagine if you will having a nice dinner at the old spaghetti factory with a couple friends you rarely spend time with and then as you exit the building you hear what sounds to be a drum squad - oh fun you think really cool buskers. So you all walk a block down to watch and just as you approach the corner around the corner comes a parade of what looks like club kids in costumes with angel wings and all sorts of get up's waving sparkly ribbons and dancing and laughing and playing shakers, blowing whistels and beckoning you to come join the big parade.

"what is this all about" I questioned one of the passers by
"it's a party"
"but who is running it"
"2 guys"
"but what's it for?"
"just to have fun"
"so it's not for anything or anyone?"
"nope 2 guys just wanted to have a party - we're going to Cherry Beach so you should come"
"I don't get it"
"whats to get it's a party parade"
*thinks to myself ohhhhh duh - a party parade not sure why I didn't figure that out sooner - who in the world has EVER seen a party parade?*

I wanted to get pictures but by the time we got back to the car the party parade had danced it's way too far up the street. But oh man I am so mad I wasn't able to get their pictures - such joy - prolly mostly high but man I wanted to feel as free as that

from my perspective.......i crave to dance to drum beats in the street and not care what anyone thinks about it
