Six
months ago today, Ufa, Russia was deposited into my love bank and left me
feeling richer because of the experience of traveling and seeing a world beyond
my own backyard and also, sharing my gifts on their music platforms.
At Ufa Jazz Club in Ufa, Russia |
It was an opportunity to embrace who I am in a different and
unfamiliar setting and it had lingering effects that still empower me in so
many ways.
What I learned
By the White River in Ufa, Russia |
You never know
how strong you are until you let your wings get you off the ground to soar
through the skies. You will never have a change of mindset if you do not clear
the clutter of doubt to let possibility in.
We push hard every day. We owe
it to ourselves to take chances on our pursuit to greatness. We ought to inhabit
each moment while working hard and experiment with it. We deserve to expand our
dreams and to marry our passions to life.
To have been well received on
the stage as I sang with the musicians, stays stored in my mind’s inventory. It
was a wonderful experience that I will never forget. It was just the melodic
change that my song and dance deserved as experiencing the soft winds of Ufa,
was the vamp to end the incredible experience that being in Russia was.
Looking
back at these moments still feels pretty darn good.
Love that- You never know how strong you are until you let yourself soar. I learned that myself this year. I stepped out and took flight too! Can't believe you're on U already!
ReplyDeleteWow! That is wonderful. Good for you. Yeah girl. Just finish ZED today. Unbelievable.
