There is a child who has been sent to me as a lesson in the form of a student. Her mother asked if I would be able to give her private dance lessons.
I decided long ago to barter as much as possible, rather than charge. I told her that I could teach for an exchange in services.
I'm not a very good house keeper. I never have been. I was the child who hid all my things under the bed, or in the closet, just so I could move on to other projects.
My student's mom usually tidies up the living room or kitchen while I teach. She's amazing, accomplishes more in an hour than I do all week. :D]
Well, this little student has such artistry. She wants to tell the story, share the emotion, as much as I do, and her technique, natural.
She has been part of a beautiful gift from Heavenly Father to me. He showed me that I know enough, I am enough, to be an instrument in His hands. He teaches me this as I teach her.
Because of the promises I have made with Heavenly Father, I have always felt a strong connection to how He thinks of me. I know He has counseled me and encouraged me and loved and will do so forever.
Because of this experience, along with others, I have decided to hold free dance classes. I give my students the opportunity to create, to discover, and to learn to become.
I was always looking for the right time and the right place to feel confident enough to open a studio, to charge for my lessons. I wanted to have the courage to say, "I'm good enough to earn your well earned paycheck, I deserve it."
That mindset always suffocated my love for dance and other performing arts. I always felt there were so many others better than me to ask for such high recompense.
Teaching in a setting with no budgets or deadlines or rent or quotas has freed me.
I know my goal is to complete some portion of the human soul. As I teach in this capacity I feel whole.
If there is something you need emotionally, or spiritually, could you fulfil it by fulfilling your eternal being?
Can we, together, lighten the burdens of the world by giving ourselves to find ourselves?
Please share your soul's sincere desire. Together, that is how the Lord intended us to exist and progress. Synergy, us plus Him = His Glory. Us plus Him = our happiness= His happiness.
con mucho Amor
