Something to pick you up for a little while...

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, but I think it fits. Many of you have probably seen this youtube video, but it's of a 47 year old woman who sings I Dreamed A Dream (from Les Miserables) on Britain's Got Talent. I keep watching it because it makes me smile and feel good. And then I realized why. Here's this 47 year old very plain looking woman who lives alone and has never even been kissed, and yet she manages to carry this attitude of "oh well, life goes on". I have such respect and admiration for that.

that was amazing. I cried so much in those 7 minutes, I felt so happy for her. thanks for sharing, what an emotional catalyst!

Awww. What an amazing woman. I wish I could have half of her enthusiam. She seems so happy within herself. It's great! Maybe the more we have the less we appreciate. It's sad really.

Susan Boyle really did rock that audience!! It amazes me though people are so judge mental, this woman with an unbelievable voice was basically frowned upon when she came out on stage because of her appearance, i think she looks great for a 47 year old woman. Well done to her, she blew the audience and viewers away. And as for all the small minded people who doubted her, bet they felt really dumb!! She really put a smile on my face.

Woohoo...over 16 million views of this video. Man, whenever I feel even a little bit down, watching it makes me feel good again. For the record, *I'd* kiss her!

This woman just made my night! Er.. morning. I feel so happy for her! Everyone in that audience will hopefully think twice about judging a person based on appearance. She really seems to have a great heart and a beautiful voice.
