Participating in Dance for Kindness as a Group Leader this year was exactly what I unknowingly needed. It forced me to challenge myself. It taught me the true value of teamwork, and it taught me that “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it” (Paulo Coelho). There is no better feeling then seeing all the hardwork fall into place and it was the greatest gift to witness seeing others come together to celebrate kindness and be apart of making that happen. I would recommend it to anyone who is up for a challenge and wants to bring something meaningful to their life.
