Inspiration

On July 22, 2011, The Howard Dias family suddenly left our world, leaving behind broken hearts of so many whose lives they touched.  Personally, I taught Sam hip-hop my first teaching year at El Carmelo, and her shiny, smiley face has permanently marked my heart.  I choose to honor these beautiful souls by channeling them, in all the amazement of who they were, what they did, and how they shared, to inspire me every day.  I want to share their inspiration with you all, and with the students who enter my life each year.  Because of you, Robert, Ana-Maria, Sam and Nica, I will hug harder, laugh harder, and smile more.  I will have more spring in my step, love in my heart, purpose in my actions, fire for my ideas, and determination to treasure every precious moment.  Thank you for being angels for us all.  www.robertandanamaria.com
