don’t judge a book…

You are here: Home / Blog / don’t judge a book…

One of my favorite quotes growing up had to be “don’t judge a book by its cover.” It’s only natural for us to make assumptions about a person due to their clothes, hair style and general appearance but that doesn’t mean we’re always right. We need to keep an open mind and give each person a chance to show us just how amazing they can be.

Here are two performances that I hope you will find them as inspirational as I did.

Paul Potts

Susan Boyle

Enjoy!!

Adrian

    Hi Adrian,
    What uplifting videos you have shared with us of Paul Potts and Susan Boyle. They are both so very talented and have truly sensational voices. I love music and enjoy watching “American Idol”, and when in Australia I received a lot of pleasure from watching “Australian Idol” but “Britains Got Talent” is just such an amazing show as it unearths so many gifted and artistically endowed people. I guess that it is because there is no age restriction placed on the contestants. I actually saved a video of another one of the performers on “Britains Got Talent” which I now want to share with you and others as well.
