A Huge Lesson
April 17, 2009Thank you Susan Boyle…
For that Huge Lesson
“We were all laughing at you;
no one is laughing at you now.”
You have put us all to shame
For who are we to place judgement on anybody else
Yes it’s a huge “wake-up call”
To remind us of our self-conceit, our cynicism
To look ourselves in the mirror
For the shame we so readily dish out
Thank you for that truly humbling experience;
we needed that
Yes it’s about time we learn to humble ourselves;
it’s about time we wake up
Thank you for that Huge Lesson…
That Invaluable Lesson
Perhaps it’s time for some re-assessment
Of ourselves, our values
Moral of the story:
“You may laugh at me now. But what does it matter?” Right?
Susan Boyle’s rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream”
on the programme “Britain’s Got Talent” on Youtube
laugh….
Susan Boyle reminds us that each and every one of us is like her in a way. We may not be much to look at (attractiveness is unfortunately, based on unrealistic ideals), but once people discover something special about us, you bet they’ll drop their jaws.
Thank you for this “A Huge Lesson”.
Really meaningful. =)
We gotta judge ourselves first before we judge people.
Life is full of ups and downs.
So even when we get laughed at, so what?
Just simply use the anger that we get from people who laughed at us turn into strength! :)
God bless.
“You may laugh at me now. But what does it matter?” Right?
Right! Agreed. U never noe who’s gonna take the last laugh. =)
ohhh, btw… a friend of mine saw you at J8′s breadtalk 2 days ago. She complimented Elvin looks cute! ;)
Yup yup.
The person who laughing now doesn’t mean he/she will be laughing till the end. =)
The moral of the story is so true
You never know who will laugh at the end…

Susan Boyle is Amazing! Simon’s total knock out day..lol! U go woman! Classic example of don’t judge a book by it’s cover. =) She’s a miracle to those who has aspirations but is daunted by age.

Martha Argerich too! <3
She is amazing. I love the courage she took and that confident attitude do make a change in her life just with a moment of time. Saw this on news when having lunch in office today then went to check out youtube and was very touch and encouraged. This is really a lesson to learn, I truly believe.
thanks for the literature lesson!
She is truly beautiful :)
Susan Boyle is amazing! thank you for sharing .
my teacher showed me this video!
-nvr judge a book by its cover-
He who judge and laugh at others’ appearance will get the utmost humiliation in the end.

Just the earth is round. Nothing can be for sure.
It just human, most judge people by looks.
But, I’ve learn not to judge that way and always give a chance to know. As long as the person look ugly inside.. and he will look ugly no matter how good looking his born or try to be.
I rather meet someone with a normal mind and a great person than someone who look, grown fully well but with no standard.
Susan Boyle’s show rather let me learn never to give up my passion and goals. And that one day value will be seen.
thank you for sharing this video elvin. its really inspiring to see how she is so passionate about her dreams and is undeterred by others’ criticisms. i think we all have something to learn from her.
all the best for star awards n filming of the ultimatum! :) jia you!
Dare to Dream
Make a Priceless Dream
Make that Dream Priceless
BUT dun juz Dream
Make it comes True
Enjoy the song enclosed …..

Hi Cindy,
Thanks for the link to see the video.
Indeed it was touching! I have been seeing this name popping up in the papers but hadn’t had the time to look for the video…until now.

Mm…it is now part of our natural habit to judge a person by their looks…especially those in the entertainment industry…. guess it’s because of the exposure from hollywood, mtv, etc.
But looks are relative, it is compared against something or someone for the judgement to be made. Like someone mentioned, a person who is ugly inside is ugly regardless of his/her looks.
That is why we should stay humble.
It also shows that Talent is something that cannot be easily duplicated while looks can (with cosmetic surgery, etc).
And while looks do not lasts, talent does.
It takes alot of courage to dream….I always admire people that have the courage to go on a stage to perform in front of an audience….I have yet to find this courage…..
Susan Boyle has shown that she dared to chase her dream and ….her dream came true!
Hi Elvin,
Good luck in the Star Awards! I wonder would you be donning a star somewhere in your suit? ;P
This really suits my feeling now…
Very unfortunate month of April…
I nearly fail my test!!!!
Haha I passed in the end
Susan Boyle may not be a very good looking woman but she has an angelic voice. *
i just thought that susan boyle has one of the best sounding voice ever`”`
susan boyle can easily hit the high notes with ease, i like her’.’
What i don’t understood is in fact how you are no longer actually a lot more neatly-favored than you may be right now. You are so intelligent. You already know thus considerably when it comes to this subject, made me personally believe it from a lot of various angles. Its like women and men aren’t fascinated except it’s something to do with Woman gaga! Your own stuffs excellent. At all times maintain it up!
