Beauty Is Only Skin Deep
For days I have been hearing rave reviews about a woman from Britain who appeared on the program Britain’s Got Talent. The program seeks out a unique talent with hopes of fame and fortune for the winning talent. So, last night I went online and watched and watched and watched Susan Boyle sing. It has to be one of the most remarkable moments in video history (at least for me).
It is truly the story of unexpected talent. You can call Susan a “diamond in the rough” or a “hidden treasure”. Whatever you call her, she is a phenomenon because of who she is But, unless you watch the clip a few times, you can’t truly appreciate the beauty and talent that lives within a person. Susan came on stage in an awkward manner and start by not speaking very clearly to the judges. The expectation was that she was set up for a fall, even humiliat ion . She sang “I Dreamed A Dream” from “Les Miserables” – a challenging song even for a professional singer. Within 4 or 5 notes, jaws dropped, faces lit up and the audience stood in unison, stark contest to the faces being made only moments before.
I am not sure why I am putting this in my blog today except that all around us are truly beautiful people with outstanding talents. What we see on TV, movies or in magazines are made up figures that we love to love. But, it is the Susan Boyles of the world who can move us to a level of appreciation unlike anything else.
Most of us will never get on stage to sing. But, our life stage is where we do shine. If you have a moment, enjoy ” I Dreamed A Dream” by Susan Boyle.
