Just don’t worry, be happy!

We only have one life to live. That’s why whatever you want to do you have to do it now or forever regretting the day you never tried. So if you want to make a change in your life today then better make that step now. You have to take the risk, at least someday you can tell yourself you did try even if it does not work out the way you want it. I have been planning to enrol in voice lesson for I want to sing and perform. I never had the chance to try because my parents think that it is just a waste of time and money. They want me to venture into something more serious. Through the years I still have that burning desire to give singing a try. Thus I enrolled in a voice lesson class, that’ where I truly find happiness for I can express what I feel when singing. And for the first time in my life I can say that I am contented with what I am doing. My teacher told me that I have a future in singing if I just practice always. In fact they will give me a chance to perform on stage. However I told them that I really am not comfortable in performing in front of many people. But my voice coach encouraged and convinced me to at least try. I just have to think like I am performing in front of the mirror. But you know what the greatest challenge is, performing in front of my parents. 


Yes I think it is about time to tell them that I want to do this and I really want to prove that I can do something else. I want to follow what my heart tells me to do and that is performing. I decided to invite my parents and I was in the backstage waiting for the concert to start. Then when I peek outside the curtain I saw them in the crowd. I got more nervous but I really took it as a challenge to prove that this is the right thing for me. So when it’s my turn to sing I began by telling the audience about my experience and how thankful I am for my parents for supporting me in my new endeavour.  


I was given a standing ovation. Then at the backstage, my parents hugged me and gave me a special gift. It is personalized wood signs with “you are a great singer” design. Then I looked at them and I can see that they are proud of me.
