Project dance

Last Saturday, I participated in Project dance! Even though it was a lot of fun, "fun" wasn't the reason that everyone was there. Project dance is a fundraiser done by Stevenson in order to help raise money for the Riverside foundation. Towards the end, they showed a video about how the money we raised was going to a great cause for great people who deserved the absolute best. It made me sociologically mindful because I never realized the hard times that people, who weren't as fortunate as I was, had to go through. While my friends and I were dancing, we saw some of the people, that this organization helps, dancing towards the stage. My friends and I went up to them, and we danced with them. Although they had every right to be angry and upset with life, they were dancing without a care in the world. They seemed so happy with what they were given, and it was a huge eye-opener. It helped me to realize to be happy with every blessing I was given. Even if life gets hard, I know I can pull through because there are others who get through in even harder situations.
