For those who thought no one would ever be able to replace Michael Jackson on the dance floor, or maybe you really miss the days of "Flashdance", "Dirty Dancing", and John Travolta's "Saturday Night Fever". Well the next king of the dance floor is only about three, but considering the dizzying speed at which the years go by today, tomorrow is just around the corner. So why not sit back and enjoy what could very well be the worlds next Jackson, Travolta, or Swayze. This is a video of a two or three year old Brazilian boy, who's moves could someday go a long way to make others forget the way they think of the kings of swing from the past.
After having posted this to another site, I must admit to being quite surprised by the range of comments made about this video. Some thought it cute, while others were completely repulsed by it. My take would be more dependent upon the situation as to why it was filmed. I have seen many children exploited by their parents here in America for the purpose of beauty pageants and sports, so to react to harshly is quite telling to say the least. Sometimes I am more curious as to why an individual would go so far as to project certain feelings towards someone else who is more innocent then the mind of the one making a comment. You must remember that this is from some sort of funniest video type thing in Brazil like "America's Funniest Home Videos". So, it was not originally filmed for others, but was later submitted.
That all being said, I will also add that children watch us and the world around them, and they mimic what they see. I have seen far worse things that children have mimicked then dancing on a table.
About Me: I am a born again Christian who enjoys talking religion and politics. I have always believed that it is the Christian's obligation to understand the workings of our government as well as they do the precepts of God. Jesus tells us to be "wise as serpents and harmless as doves". (Mark 10:16) So it is with this understanding that I approach life. I was born in the Midwest, and while I may have grown up in Northern Minnesota, I have earned my degree in knowledge and understanding from the many regions of America and Europe that I have either lived in or visited as an adult.
