That's Showin' 'Em!!

Having been made fun of a lot in my life...and remembering just about every time with crystal clarity...I hate embarrassment. I hate to be embarrassed. I hate to see other people embarrassed. I get embarrassed for other people. I can't watch debates on TV, I hate April Fools Day, and "roasts" make me sick to my stomach.

As I watched this clip--before she opened her mouth, I was PRAYING that she would be awesome. I knew the laughs that were out there in the audience--I could feel them before I could hear them...I so didn't want her to have to stand on that stage and experience that. Even if she was strong enough and brave enough, I didn't want it for her.

And then she started to sing. My goodness. Amazing. Truly. If you don't believe that God gives people gifts--you should listen to this woman. I hope that she gets to live her dream.
