When was the last time you judged and were humbled at the outcome? For judges of Britain’s Got Talent show it was just this past week in front and along with an audience that most definitely were ready to toss the book, just by looking at its cover.
The name of the book, or singer in this case; Susan Boyle.
An astounding voice profused out of a lady that all had pre-judged quite severely, openly displaying on camera smurcks and eyes rolling. After taking care of her family her whole life, she is on her pursuit, with a golden voice in hand and a quirky and interestingly sassy uplifting attitude.

In Britain’s Got Talent, Simon Cowell along with fellow judges, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden, and the entire house were gobsmacked (English slang meaning utterly astonished) when they heard the most precious voice coming from Susan Boyle as she sang “I Dreamed a Dream” (Les Miserables) and had every person in standing applause. |
Her performance was so beautiful it had people wide eyed starting by Simon himself, if you have ever watched the program you know how abrasive he is with all the contestants. For Susan all he had were praises.
This video was uploaded to YouTube and since then Susan has received several offers, including interviews with Larry King and possibly Oprah.
In the mesmerizing experience of hearing her voice, echoes a blatant manner in which we are so quick to judge. We all do it, and if you are thinking “I don’t” you are lieing to yourself!
We judge ourselves, our family, co-workers and yes, this lady that we had never seen before!
Why? Perhaps it’s the plank! What plank? The one that remains in our eyes as we dodge it and are quick to criticize and judge everyone and thing we see.
Enjoy the music and take some time to focus on your own plank as you pick up your jaw with humbleness!
