Yesterday, I found someone that stand for what I believe in. I think you should watch this video first and read the rest after watching to get what I mean.

Have you watched it? If yes, :)
She was ridiculed by those thousands of cynical people. But she stood through it all, hardly flinching or giving any notice to those around her who doubted her. But sadly, this is how the world is, rewarding based on beauty not on talent, so much so that our view and image of beauty is so badly distorted. Susan Boyle jolts us back to our senses to realise that beauty is truly within. Not only the singing but the attitude. She has not kissed a man before, and is turning 48 this year. People laughed at her, but she plowed on. She had to take care of her ageing parents and fulfilled her mother's wish to enter this contest. I just want to take this oppurtunity to help you to realise that we must have a wider outlook on life and not judge on outward appreances. She probably lives a simple live and ignores the jeers and taunts thrown at her especially by Simon Cowell, not that I am blaming him.
Susan Boyle has now become an international phenomenon. Look at this vid, 16 million hits already. :)
Watching this video makes me feel good. I hope it does the same to you.
Warning: Cynicism is not accepted here.

I love this show, it has so many surprises like this,so many touching stories behind talents too, i love love it :)
and yes, the world is like that, but shes one of those people who do what they do no matter what people say; because she loves to do what she loves to do!!! if that made any sense at all..
I wish there were more people like her, but moreover and more importantly, i wish to have her strength :D
