And Now There’s a Bear

We threw a BIG Dork Dance party, and then a bear showed up. We had no idea a bear was in town, but he came. Immeditately this bear was embraced, loved, and lifted.

We didn’t know where this bear came from but we loved that he decided to dork dance with us. He added energy and excitement. Dancing with a bear, out in public, was something different that we liked. We think the bear liked it too.

At the end of the day, the bear lifted his mask. He was Vietnamese, someone new. We thanked him for joining. And then days later, he returned.

And then he joined again the day after. Yes, we now have a dork bear in our community. We don’t know how long this bear will be with us, but we are grateful that he has joined.

Keep on #dorkdancing for mental health. You never know when a random, fun bear may show up to dance with you.
