Dancing for Globalization


I think Matt Harding's video of him dancing changed the world because his weird dance moves in different countries connects people together. This is a lot like the compliment guys, the compliment guys compliment other people to make other's life better. Matt Harding's video is a entertainment, but also connects people together. Starting from 0:52 in the video, other people from all the different countries joined in.
The painting by Marc Chagall, the Juggler supports the fact that dancing can bring people together. In the top right of the painting, there is a blue dress woman dancing with the juggler.
When I first saw the video, I laughed at Matt's hilarious dance moves. Laughing helps to heal more faster and can reduce the pain. It can also reduce food cravings and relieve stress.
Rabindranath Tagore's poem about dancing also supports the fact dancing can cause connect the world together. Rabindranath's last sentence in the poem says that there are no age limit in dancing, everyone is welcome. The first sentence says that a special stream of life connects the world together and dances rhythmically. I'm guessing that the stream of life is nature, because in the second sentence in the poem says that the steam of life gives the dust of the earth grass and flowers.
The image above shows people holding each other's hands around the earth. A extra detail I found about the image is that the people in the video all have cancer, but survived.
