Day nineteen: Talent

Tonight, my besties Ellie and Jessica and I got into a conversation (okay, well it was more of a string of youtube videos) of talented children. Elliot believes that most of them are just trained monkeys, but hey. They can sing better than me, so I have to appreciate that. So I thought I would post a few on here. Some of them are really inspirational, like Rhema, who sings gospel music. Her mother died of ovarian cancer when she was six. She's eight now. And, good lord, she can sing.


This is Jackie Evancho. She scares me a little, because there's NO WAY someone that small could sound like that. But she's got some talent, and some heart. :)


And now, roaming out of the "trained monkeys." This is Robin Schlotz, who taught himself how to sing this. He was fourteen when this was recorded.


But this, this is the point of the post. I found this, and I died laughing. It proves that everyone can have a talent. Everyone can bring joy to people in their own special way. You just have to figure out what that way is. :)


Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.

P.S. Taylor Swift, please tell me where you're hiding the cameras. You write about my life. Exactly. Kthnxbye. :D
