Awe Inspiring!

December 20th, 2007

Moments ago, my sister shared with me an amazing video:

We hear the voice over of the show’s host as we pan on Paul’s face: “For the next contestant, show business seems a million miles away…”

I know how he feels…

Then Paul says, “My dream is to spend my life doing what I know I was born to do.”

He took the words out of my mouth, and then took my breath away with a voice and a song that filled the entire studio and brought the audience to their feet.

I couldn’t help but cry, because I was so moved, and also so proud.

This video was from earlier this year. Since his audition, Paul Potts went on to win the competition and release a new album. He even performed for the Queen!

My husband sent me a link with an update on his story:

Paul’s courage and determination remind me to keep reaching for the stars.
