My A. B. C. Diary

About the Book

My ABC is a heartening book by a unique girl, Lucila, who, outdaring medical odds, returned to stages even stronger, learning the real meaning of happiness. Lucila, at the peak of her dance career, was ran over by a truck, inducing her to two weeks in coma with major injuries. She shares how her faith in God has made an impact in her life and recovery, what she thinks a miracle looks like. Her key message is that the impossible is a matter of perspective. To achieve happiness, there are no secrets. The important question is “what for,” instead of “why.” Challenges will be transformed to strengths, and your life’s mission will come, and you’ll accomplish it naturally and effortlessly every day. The best compliment I’ve received was, “Lucila, you’re weird,” and I’d respond, “Whatever you do, just be you. It’s harder to remember those who have never been weird at some point.”

About the Author

Born and raised in South America, Argentina and Brazil, respectively, Lucila received her professional dance training at Bolshoi Theatre School in Brazil. Lucila moved to Canada, where she successfully performed until 2015 when an automobile accident, unfortunately, forced Lucila to face a pause on her artistic career. However, not stubborn, she made her way back to the stage the following year. Nonetheless, the severe accident made it impossible to pursue her career as a professional dancer, and today she is an instructor. “Dance is a mere form of expression that communicates what your soul says.”
