First they were shocked… then they laughed… and then they
mocked.
They thought what on earth was she doing here.
They made fun of me, they chuckled, they giggled.
Unleashing my passion on the floor, I let my moves do the
talking.
I held them in awe for minutes and I kept giving them what
they didn’t expect.
I showed them my killer moves, till their jaws dropped.
When I am done they all stood up… they had to … I made them
stand up.
Yes, I who chased my dreams and learnt what I loved the
most, age is just a number.
Who told you when you are 80 you can’t do a Salsa?
Now wasn't that mind boggling??? Paddy you are a star. Watch the video guys and you will all be left thinking what is she made of - Determination I would say. Thanks to Hrithik Roshan (who happened to share this video in one of his tweet) that I got to watch such a wonderful positive woman. Cheers to Woman Power!!!

Haha...great thinking. The age doesn't have to stop what you want.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanette, yes age is just a number I think
DeleteHow wonderful! And how encouraging. I used to take dance lessons and am hoping someday to get back to them. Maybe I'll stop worrying about how much older I am now than I was when I took them before. :)
