Finding Happiness

I can't remember a time when I wasn't singing, dancing, whirling and twirling.  I believe that my life was choreographed before I was five, but I didn't always follow the choreography that was mine.  Everyone seeks happiness, but finding it and keeping it seems difficult to do.  I believe we are born with a gift and it is only when we share that gift that true happiness is found.  I always knew that dance was central in my life.  It didn't matter what else might be going on a divorce, a life threatening illness or financial stress when the music started and the dance began I would be happy.  The music and the dance have always faithfully been there ready to pick me up, brush me off and put me back in the studio again.  The signs have always been everywhere that dance and teaching was my one true thing my gift, but I thought I needed to do more as a career versus just dance and teach so, I was an accountant with a CPA Firm, I was a stock broker with a major Wall Street brokerage firm, I've been an investor in several different  businesses but, regardless of how lucrative these positions were or were not they didn't bring me the happiness I always easily and naturally found in a studio.  My life works best when I dance just as it was choreographed way back before I was five.  I do what I love and I love what I do.  I nurture the body, minds and hearts of children.  I no longer see this as just dance it is, so much more I help some children who dream of being dancers find their own gift of dance,  I provide dance as a recreational fitness program for others and finally I work with children who struggle with autism, mental or a physical disabilities and I help these children find new pathways to learn. Regardless, if dance is a child's dream, their gift, a recreational outlet or a therapy to develop new learning pathways all of my little dancers are building self esteem and confidence as they dance, sing, wiggle & giggle and I get to share in the joy that the music and the dance brings.  The joy of dance I give away returns and shines on me.  I hope when you get the chance to sit out or dance... you dance and I hope you have the opportunity to see the world through a child's eyes.  Be happy &  be blessed.
