Every once in a while, we mere mortals here on Earth are blessed with a moment of sheer grace and inspiration. Coming in the form of something very unexpected, we are taken aback and made to lift our heads from the daily grind. It is meant to make us come to attention. To remove our blinders and take note of something special.
Mere mortals sometimes need these wake-up calls.
Susan Boyle, a recent contestant from Britain’s Got Talent, is serving {consciously, or unconsciously, it makes no difference} as one of these Earth Angels. From the moment she stepped onto the stage, she surprised with her quirky charm and her spunky self-deprecation. Unemployed, and of an age clearly not conducive to new beginnings in most viewers’ eyes, she was an unapologetic underdog. But from the moment she opened her mouth to sing, the meaning behind her appearance was clear. Even her choice of song seems to be no coincidence.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I did {and thank you, Jen, for passing it along to me! XOXO!}.
