A 47 year old single, unemployed woman from a little village walks on the stage of a popular television talent show, she sings and that one performance changes her life forever!
People laughed at her when she said her dream was to become a professional singer and be successful like her idol Elaine Paige.
She was not fashionably dressed, she had no attractive make-up, but she had that passion in her to achieve something fruitful in life - to sing and showcase her talent and make her dream come true!

The great inspiration is Susan Boyle and below is her first audition in 2009 at Britain's Got Talent which changed her life!!
Here is her biography in brief - Susan Boyle.
And documentaries made on her life - I Dreamed a Dream - The Susan Boyle Story and Susan Boyle - An Unlikely Superstar.
She was nobody before April 2009 but by November 2009, her first album I Dreamed a Dream became the No.1 best-selling album on charts and went on to sell almost 9 million copies around the world till date.
She had the will to pursue her dream despite all the setbacks and finally tasted success!!
And that inspiration is not just for singing - but for any dream in your life. If she can, can't we too? If it was possible for her, won't it be possible for everyone of us?
So, keep dreaming and sincerely work towards making your dreams come true, someday success will embrace you too, never give up!!

P.S: As this post is about singing, I'd like to share about an opportunity I got to sing!
I am singing at a small fun event being organised for colleagues at Sainsbury's(my workplace) on Sunday, 29th of Sept in our canteen premises with fashion show, quiz and other fun games. The event is scheduled from 5pm to 7pm and I'm allotted 10 minutes - I need to sing 2 songs - one Christmas song and another of my own choice.
The Christmas song is already decided - it'll be Last Christmas by Wham! but the 2nd song is yet to be finalised.

I'm gonna practice well and I'm positive and confident - I hope it goes well! :) I'll try if I can get a video made when I sing, if I am able to get it done, then I'll share it with all of you here on blog :)
