Today we were all a part of such a unique community. One where we have come from different places, go to different schools, work different jobs, are different ages, personalities, and have different interests. Yet, we all came together today and every week at group class to make music. Music truly is a universal language and we all proved that today by the astounding support I saw.
Everyone had their own challenges to work through today and we were all able to succeed in our own way. Music allows us to do and experience so many things. It allows us to make mistakes and for everything to still be okay. We can continue on, keep trying and know that we will be supported in everything we do. This environment is so important to have, because it unfortunately does not exist everywhere. But if we can experience this support regularly we can learn how to handle situations where we may not get that same support and know deep down that it is okay. This is such an important skill to give to children and to remind ourselves as adults about.
I am so grateful to be able to work with such generous families. Those who helped me through the recital today whether from setting things up, maintaining the reception table or cleaning up afterwards. Your time and help is truly appreciated.
We all supported each other today. We all tried our best. We all had fun (and possibly ate too many sweets!).
I am so proud of everyone. One recital done, on to the next!
