Never Judge a Book By Its Cover | Susan Boyle

Ranked #7,670 in Entertainment, #94,700 overall | Donates to Save the Children

Susan Boyle

When She first walked out on the stage of Britain's Got Talent, people made faces. You could tell by the snarls that they assumed this 47 year old woman must be a joke. But Susan Boyle surprised the world with the voice of an angel.

I think there is a lesson here for everyone. Don't ever judge a book by it's cover. Everyone has their own unique beauty. Sometimes it isn't so evident at the surface.....but it is there.

Who is Susan Boyle

Susan is a very average middle aged woman. She is unemployed looking for a job. She has a cat named Pebbles (just like mine). She's never been married and never been kissed.

She said that she has wanted to perform since she was 12 and decided to honor a wish of her Mom by showing off her talent. So she decided to audition for Britain's Got Talent. It's been a blessing to the world that she did!

As she walked out on stage she said, "I'm gonna make that audience Rock!"

And she did!

Only some people are lucky enough to have talents.

WendyKrick says:

I am one of those people who doesn't have any spectacular talent. But I think we all have something special that makes us unique.

Everyone has a talent, it is sometimes just hidden inside. My talent is....

PastorCher says:

Every good and perfect gift comes from God. She has really been given this special gift of music.

teriann says:

I agree that everyone has a talent and sometimes it takes talent to discover it. I am very grateful that this women never gave up. I feel very blessed by by Susan Boyles talent and that she is still willing to share it with us.

Joan4 says:

For sure we all have talents -- and we need to discover them. Sometimes in childhood, those talents are ignored or unseen, and so they never develop. I hope we all find our secret talent this year!

Wysiwigs says:

I definitely believe everyone has a talent. It just takes some of us a little while to figure out what it is :o)

    She has a beautiful voice. I'm glad she decided to go on the show (even though I've never seen it), because we all got the opportunity to listen to an amazing voice.

    Nicely Done lens on Susan Boyle. She really is an inspiration to us all - Its never too late.

    Listening to her voice gives me chills. I enjoy watching the you tube video of her first audition and re-living that first note. What a blessing she has brought my life with her talent. Being the same age as Susan Boyle reminds me to never stop striving for your inner gifts. I'm sure most of us still have talents that are waiting to come out.

    Thanks for sharing this info with us Susan Boyle fans.
