Goldfish

Okay so last week I unintentionally killed about 10 goldfish. No i'm am not a sick person who likes to kill innocent gold fish. I am simply an employ who was following orders. So i work at a day care and my boss thought it would be a cute idea to put lil fish in water bottles and have the kids take them home as gifts. Yea that was a cute idea for about an hour. Because before I knew it, only one fish was left alive because he got lucky and was put in a baggy instead of a bottle. So a parent informed that they died because basically they didn't have enough room to move around and water couldn't go through the gills so they kicked the bucket.

If you are reading this you are probably thinking, well duh. But we take care of kids not fish so we didn't know and we felt bad. Although one of my kids suggested that we use batteries on the fish to bring them back to life. But i don't think that would work. But it was a good suggestion.

Okay so in this same week i learned a very important lesson. That had absolutely nothing to do with me killing the goldfish, but i'm going to attempt to tie everything together.
Okay so life is short, not as short as a goldfish's life but short none the less. SO it is vitally important to do what you love. And this is more then something you enjoy. I am very blessed because almost everyday i am able to do what i love. I love to dance, i was tapping the other day and thinking to myself, it is so great that i can tap. And even though i love to dance, its hard sometimes, because i'm not a perfect dancer, it's hard gettin work as a dancer and i don't perform as much as I want to. but i do it no matter what. which brings me to the second part of my lesson learned, do what you love because you love it. Then all other things, recognition, fame , satisfactition will come to you. Because if you start doing what you love for the wrong reasons, then what you love doing will turn into what you just do. And if you loose that passion then you loose part of yourself.

My mom is i believe well in her 50's and she plays tennis. She is never gonna be pro, there aren't to many tournaments she could go to, and if they are she probably wouldn't go to them. she simply just loves playin tennis. And I admire her for that

okay back to the goldfish. Sometimes i do what i love but i get frustrated because i see people doing more. Like people dancer more, or starting a career or whatever. But i have come to realize that God as put me in this particular fish bowl for a reason. and it may not be the ocean but i'm going to make the most of it. Because maybe right now i'm not ready to swim in the ocean, maybe all i need is right here in the fishbowl i'm in. And one day i'll be able to swim in that sea, and they won't be any other fish like me.

yes that was cheesy but im proud of it
