Wishes, Hopes, and Dreams
When I first watched the Susan Boyle and Paul Potts videos, I knew that they were going to be good because why else would we watch it during class? I admire their performances. In the section of the videos before they performed, it showed how clumsy and unattractive they were, but they still had confidence. They were so driven by their dreams that they could look out at the smirking and laughing faces of the audience, and find the power deep inside them to stand tall on that stage and blow the crowd away. These two videos showed me how judgmental and opinionated mankind has become. We are constantly comparing, contrasting, and evaluating other people by their appearance. We judge by clothing brands, age, hygiene, and also very small things like hairstyle. I think that this is absurd. After watching these videos, I have realized that I have probably made numerous judgments like this and it made me feel bad. I believe that everyone should be given a chance and no one should be left out because of his or her appearance.
