Each year, for the past 22 years, Festa Italiana has come to Portland, Oregon.
I have been to it 3 times.
A couple times before I lived in Italy and last night.
I had so much fun!
The collection of Italians, and many other cultures was refreshing.
The music was delightful and even better was all of us just dancing together.
Besides having fun,
I was reminded of much I enjoy dancing with men who know how to lead.
I was encouraged as Italian flowed out of my mouth from time to time
It was so lovely to have an evening of not thinking about all the things currently in my life.
And just to be in the moments.
At one point I stopped to take it all in and tears welled up in my eyes with the joy I felt in the moment. I miss Europe.
But I also know that I am stateside for a season, and I want to be intentional about this season.
