Loving LifeRealizing your dreams is a process. Life can be so hurried and fast paced, you have to schedule a time for your “dreams”. Lack of finances, discouragement from others, and stresses at work can contribute to you losing sight of your dreams, but don’t let it! Do whatever you can to contribute to your own visions. Take a conscious look at what you want. What I truly want is to encourage individuals of all shapes, sizes, colors and fitness levels to get moving. I would love to have a business that would make an impact on the world, by showing others the importance of African culture, rhythm and dance. I have used my love of the movements of African dance in my fitness routines and schedule. Although I have not yet reached all my goals, I am realizing some of my dreams. I will tell you a story about a woman who came and sat in on the Monday night class I teach with Sheila of Sasa African Dance theatre. She quietly sat in a corner during class, and was smiling the whole time. She was grooving to the rhythms and watching me teach the dances. Then it dawned on her! She remembered me from a YouTube video! I was so shocked. She told me the story how my movements helped to inspire her to teach some children creative movement for a performance they were doing at a school. I was so grateful for that loving interaction and her appreciation for that video. This is what inspires me to keep dancing, loving, and moving!
