Have More Fun

Mark said, "I cannot have more fun than I am already having."

I feel the same way.

I was starting to dance with a lady. She said, "I am a beginner."

I told her, "I do not care what you do. I cannot have any more fun than I am already having."

Once you can get up and dance, you are having as much fun as you can have. You are dancing.

You do not have more fun when you get better. While there are lots of reasons to get better, having more fun is not one of them. You may even have less fun when you get better, if you become judgmental. If your expectations rise with your skill level, there will be fewer people that can meet your demands.

There is a way though to have more fun. Dance More, Sit Less

The more dances you know, the more dancing you can do. You only need to know enough to get your tuchy off the chair and onto the floor, to have more fun.
