A few days ago, Amy, a dear lady of a certain age, dropped in for a short visit. She came to buy a copy of BURLING STREET GIRL, a gift for her hairdresser, who feels she may want to write a book. Amy thought BSG might spur her on.
As ladies will do, we talked about what’s happening in our lives, things we’d like to accomplish, and at one point she said, “You’ll think I’m crazy when I tell what I’ve wanted to do since I was a little girl. I've always wanted to take dancing lessons.” We both laughed. In no way did I think she was crazy, not this lady. I thought, why not? Well, as we talked, Amy told me she was enrolled in a dance studio and had already taken two lessons. Probably had lesson #3 by now. I think it’s great that Amy’s finally following a dream that began when she was a kid.
Amy, whether you stop at two lessons or go on for lots more, you’ve opened a door and let another chapter of life come in. Go, girl!
By the way, Amy is 91 years old.
