*Precious MOMENTS...*

My *Precious MOMENTS...* I will say I don’t have that many but the ones I have are the most precious to me.
When I was a very small child and for many years I was very shy, very scared of everything and that kept me from learning and sharing what I really had in me to share with others and it stop me from growing like I wanted to grow and learn.
When I started on my second Private School I had a very special teacher her name is *Miss Carmen*... somehow she knew I was very shy and she knew what she needed to do to help me get out of my own little shell that I had put myself into to protect myself from getting hurt or from being afraid. She helped me with my gifts I had which I knew I had them but was to afraid to use them. She taught me to paint... to embroider... to sing... to cook... she also taught me History and to me History was so interesting and I loved it! And to DANCE... she help me find myself and help me to love myself and not to be afraid. I will call that one of my Precious times. *Feeling that I was someone*
I started to be very involved with Dancing... oh wow.. What a get away and it has been all through my life. I can express all what I feel inside dancing and was able to dance for many years and it helped me so much. Dancing is Heaven to me, I have been able to perform many times and teach and share what I knew with many and it helped me to get rid of the fear I had inside of me. Every dance I have danced all my life are *Precious MOMENTS*.. And I know I can take it with me forever, it is what I liked most and I can say I was blessed to be able to fulfilled this gift and even though I had to quit because of my illness I can say I had the chance to do it and I am so very grateful and they are my own
*Precious MOMENTS*
Leaving my country and starting a new life in the USA was a great big challenge but I am also grateful to a wonderful Instructor I had in my Church, a precious sister that taught me of how to be a Lady, and how to love myself and to know that there is a God who loves me just the way I am and that I could count on Him always and because of these teachings I have been able to confront all my ups and downs in my life and been able to keep my head up and know that God loves me with all my imperfections and to Love is the key to Eternity and happiness forever. Another *Precious MOMENT* in my life.
Another *Precious MOMENT*... being able to finish High School with a 3.9 after all the struggles I had to go through in learning a new language... I was so happy for myself for being able to accomplish such Honor.

Starting a new life as a single Mother... what a challenge and yet very rewarding because I had my children to help me fight and really help me find myself and proof to myself that I could overcome whatever came.
