Never Give Up What you Love

The Sunday Post III
I feel like
the tittle of this post could easily be a lyric from pop song. Welcome to
another Sunday Post… I have a month left to finish my first year of university
and, after intense months of hard work and dedication, I finally see summer at
the end of the tunnel. I wanted to talk to you about the power of never giving
up doing what you love, as I feel is something we all experience as we grow
older.
I was a really
artistic little girl and while growing up I took drama and music classes, I
loved it and I enjoyed every single minute while I was there. I also feel they
really helped me beat my shyness and be a more confident kid, I made great
friends and still today I can remember how to play a saxophone (which is
great). However, as I grew older I gradually stopped attending my lessons;
school supposed too much work and I did not have time to do everything. I took
some more music lessons when I was about 13-14 but I haven't done anything
since then.
Recently I
have been noticing how much I miss taking music lessons; even though I sing
24/7 when I'm at home (I'm sure my neighbours could tell you so), I'd love to
go back and start singing again or even learn how to play a new instrument (I
really want to learn no play guitar).
That feeling
led me to the reflection that most kids take some artistic lessons or do some
kind of sport while growing up but only a few continue to do them when they are
older. We should not let that happen. Letting ourselves enjoy for a few hours a
week doing something we really love and that brings us so much joy could help improve
our mental health and stress levels and with hat even increase our levels of
happiness. Even if you just don't do the exact same thing, try yoga if you
liked dancing or join a football team if you used to play it as a kid.
Please let
yourself be a little kid again and go back to anything that makes you happy.
You would not regret it.
I think we
should all take a moment to reflect about that and to encourage people around
you to continue doing what they love and pursuing their dreams, there's nothing
better than that in life. And specially to your kids or little brothers or
sisters as they still have time to never stop doing what they love.
