Unplanned experiences

Last night I was able to watch another episode of So You Think You Can Dance. I was really touched by some of the people who auditioned because they had physical disabilities and yet they try and some of them actually dance so well. It just shows that anyone can do anything if they set they heart into it.

I was just thinking of how funny life is sometimes. During last night’s episode, they featured a guy (we’ll call him John because I can’t remember his name) who played as the quarterback for the school football team. John’s dad was saying how proud he was of his son because he was the perfect son – had a good personality, played sports really well, was popular in school, dated a cheerleader… and then John got into an accident and was forced to take ballet lessons as a form of therapy to help improve his leg work. During therapy, he developed an interest for dancing and decided to quit the football team to focus on dancing. It really is amazing how one life experience helps a person see things in a different light. It took for an accident to happen for him to even consider dancing. When I saw him audition, I was impressed at how well he moved considering he just started dancing. Perhaps God has other plans for him. It’s truly amazing how something unplanned happens and yet everything falls into place.
