So You Think You Can Dance???

This is one of the best shows ever (in my opinion of course)!!!  It starts tonight and I am so excited.  Season 7 was seriously the best ever.  The talent of Lauren, Kent (such a cutie), Alex, AdeChicke, Robert, Billy, and all the others was beautiful to watch each week. 

I've been watching some of the dances on youtube this week, and one in particular always touches me.  Billy and All-Star Ade (beautiful dancer) performed a routine demonstrating how people overlook others.  Specifically in this dance Ade overlooked Billy because he was homeless.  Think about all the people who we overlook because they are not necessarily homeless, but have a learning disability, a mental illness, or facial disfigurement.  Sometimes, we ignore others becuase we can't relate to them based on their economic status, fashion styles, educational backgrounds, and so many other shallow things.
