Dance

The people will climb up Zion's slopes shouting with joy,
their faces beaming because of GOD's bounty--

Grain and wine and oil, flocks of sheep, herds of cattle.

Their lives will be like a well-watered garden,
never again left to dry up.

Young women will dance and be happy,

young men and old men will join in.

I'll convert their weeping into laughter,
lavishing comfort,

invading their grief with joy.

Jeremiah 31:12-13 (MSG)
(Here's a previous "dance" IF post)

I've added a tutorial of sorts at
Back 2 the Drawing Board
on how I made the background for this one.

Hey, just saw the new header. I love it. Although, don't you just hate when that happens. Looks like you may need to replace that monitor.
