Sing Professionally - Susan Boyle


There is not much to say about this one. Susan Boyle, 47, and 100 days ago living in a small village in England, in obscurity. Now she is living the dream she always had - to sing professionally.

This just makes me wonder how many of us have dreamed a dream. Dreamed of something and as Susan said, "just never had a chance." I don't believe that dreams are not fulfilled unless we are seen, known, or famous. But when someone like Susan enters on the stage we should all take note of the lesson.

We all have dreams and what if we saw each other in that way. What if we saw each the way we see Susan Boyle now. To many times we cave, give in, and give up on the dreams we have held onto for years or even a life time. Susan sings a song, I Dreamed a Dream, from Les Miserables. In the story, Fantine is left alone, unemployed and destitute when she sings this song. Susan Boyle, was unemployed and still looking for a job when she performed. In reality, if she had let it, Susan like many could have resigned herself to believe the last line of Fantine's song, "Now life has killed the dream I dreamed".

We should not give in. 100 Day Susan Boyle had a dream. She did not give up her dream, even when it seemed impossible to accomplish. What will you do in the next 100 days? Watch Susan's Video
