| My daughter teaching dance class. |
I love when I see someone do something they love, something they enjoy.
On top of attending school full time and working an almost full time job, my daughter decided to take on teaching dance to young girls at a local community center. At first I was not for it only because she has quite a full plate already. I didn't think the added responsibility was in her best interest. However, as grown children do...they do what THEY want. So, she signed up to teach. She did a spring break camp over the break and began her weekly classes this week. I went to watch her first weekly class. Oh how she made me proud! She had Taylor Swift playing in the background as she taught them basic steps to ballet and jazz. They ended class with a good stretch and then she gathered the girls together to have small girl talk about what they liked about class (since it was their first one with her.) I was so pleased to see my daughter doing something she loves to do, something she was passionate about, something she is blessed to have talent in doing.
One thing I love to encourage is following your passions. If you have something that you love to do and/or something you carry a talent for, you should not waste. (I am always "preaching" this to family and friends when I see they have talent.) I almost did that with my daughter by not supporting something she had a passion to do. What was I thinking? That is not like me! I do know I was just thinking of her overall well-being of trying to juggle all the responsibilities. But, when you are happy doing what you do....doesn't it all just work out?
