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.
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 =)
Awesome! I wonder where she is now!
She is married with 3 kids and seemingly very happy with where she is in life!
