Bird no. 267. Do this more. . It may seem like a small kindness, but to the recieving end I can assure you it fills the entire room. . I love the (swing) dance classes I'm taking right now. I feel excited, I feel like I'm learning, I love the instructors, I am delighted to be able to join in. There's just one little thing... . The classes are all in French! 😂 I can understand the instructors well enough (we all hear what we want to hear anyway, right? 😉), but the real issue is integrating into a group of people who are already friends and only speak French to each other 😓 . Every time we have to partner up, my heart starts to pound and in an instant it's already over - I look around the room and suddenly I'm the only one standing alone! It's like being picked last for a team by every person in the room, over and over again 😅 . I get it, and it's not personal, but it's a HUGE exercise in sitting with discomfort. I think in a few weeks it will be a little less painful. I can feel it already, because: . Today, someone noticed me. Today, they picked me. Today, they saw me sitting alone, and invited me to come to the dance tonight. . It meant the world to me that they even spoke to me...and here I am at home 😂 I can think of a million excuses not to go, but I'd better put on my dancing shoes. Wish me luck! 😘 . #getoutthere #askanyway #getoffthecouch #shoot #itspastmybedtime (at Montreal, Quebec)
