Lila Vasilescu, DFK18 Group Leader
This is my 4th year as a Group Leader in Bucharest, Romania and I took a leap of faith as I feel kindness is also at times a leap of faith when it might feel like the reality of our everyday is anything but kind. My leap of faith was to organize the event outdoors when normally at this time of the year we have snow and temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius. In my heart I envisioned a sunny day with warmth from the outside as well as from our hearts. And boy were we lucky! My second leap of faith was to stop trying to convince people to join us but rather inspire, model and leave space for everyone to make a choice. Because I realized that no matter the number of people dancing, that day could pass by as a regular day or it could be a spectacular day with even one dancer just because an intention to show kindness exists.
