When I was 15, I told a girl that she should audition for the elite choir at our school (she was very talented). She said she would audition if I would audition (I had no vocal talent) but I auditioned and being one of the only males I got in. I fell in love with singing, worked my ass off, went to college on a vocal scholarship and now 20 years later I am the vocal coach for the largest theatre in our state. That little moment, which she probably doesn't even remember, changed my entire life trajectory.
Awesome! I wonder where she is now!
She is married with 3 kids and seemingly very happy with where she is in life!
That's beautiful, and to get paid for your passion. Tha'ts the cherry on top. I was going to ask if you ever reconnected, but I guess not. You know, the world's pretty cuckoo nowadays, it's always nice to drop a line to someone who helped you along the way if you've got the time. Kudos either way!
We are still FB friends and have talked a few times over the years, but you're right, I should tell her!
Awseome =)!
I think at the least, you'll put some positive vibes into the universe. Which is always good! GL, and stay sinigng =)
