LOVE

Life is truly short. We we must live everyday like its our last, and LOVE one another. Since i have been teaching dance,this past year alone, i have lost two wonderful and talented children . These children have influenced my life, and each one of them i remember distinctivley with a story. One of the student had a illness that he continued to battle everyday, the last time i saw him, he wanted to participate in class but couldn't. I helped into a chair and pulled the chair into the studio where i was teaching. He watched his peers finish the routine. He was happy just being able to see how the final routine ended. Later that day he showed me a picture he drew of an angel and that was last day i saw him. At the age of 7 he passed away. Another student of mine could light up a room with his smile and optimism towards life. He made me smile each time i saw him, and boy did he have a personality. He grew up with an extensive background in the arts which bled through his charisma. Early September he was in a tragic car accident that took his life way to early at the age of 6. In his memory his family celebrated instead of mourning. Life is precious. Months later his father put together The Pro Love tour which was truly uplifting. The whole community came out to support here in Buffalo, NY. I put together a dance along with another friend of mine, and showcased how Asa took me to Higher Ground" Check it out. The clip is full of artist, im toward the end so be patient! Its only a snippet.
