on Susan Boyle and the power of dreaming
Just another "inspired by Susan Boyle" post to add to the growing collective out there.
I'm amazed at how much hope and inspiration seem to be sweeping the globe regarding this fine lady. How her determination and tenacity in the face of life itself, the ultimate judge has overcome not only our own wayward perceptions of humanity but really a beautiful thought for us to input into our own consciousness.
Here we have a 47 year old, way past what the young and modern web2.0 world would consider "prime". Even me, at 33, probably stretching what it means to be a young web startupper, by about 10 years. But she shows us that the race is not always to the swift, the battle not always to the strong. It is to those who are faithful in the face of adversity, who cling to hope in times of trepidation, that trudge forward steadfast in struggle- they overcome.
The nature of this world is that not everything overcomes - I'm not overly optimistic to believe that failure does not rear its head every now and then. So much more the reason for celebration- when someone looks perceived destiny in the eye and gives a smirk and a hip shake, then goes on to pummel perception in the face and step into something well earned and received.
A hope for all of us- yes. Something to cheer for- most definitely. Score one for the little guys- keep dreaming!
