Hi all!
As some of you know, last weekend we had Holiday Carnival here in Brazil.
I do love Samba, but I’m not great on the dance part and neither my friends haha, so we enjoy this Holiday playing The Corrs and Irish Music. Also, because Carnival lasts for 4 days, so we can have plenty of time together, since we live in different parts of the Country.
As much as
I would love to talk about “Corrnival” and my great friends, today I’m here to
talk about something really awesome that happened to me during one of those
days in Belo Horizonte.
We were
playing in a public place, the environment there was awesome. Irish Music by
our side and Samba by the other. Sometime on that afternoon a mom with her baby
boy holding her hand approaches me and says: “He wants to see your musical
instrument”. We smile at each other, I kneeled in front of him, showed him and
told him to play and hold the instrument, as he did. While we were talking,
playing, there was this group getting ready to perform, with this awesome and
big percussion instruments called tambores. When they start to do the check
sound, the little boy, scared, jumped in my neck, hugged me really tight and I
hugged him back. The mom looked at me and whispered: “Thank you”. After this, the place started to get crowded
and I couldn’t say goodbye to them, but that hug was one of the best I had so
far, and is really touching how kids trust in everyone and anyone.
Wish we
could all be like them.
Happy Weekend!
