A Huge Lesson

Thank you Susan Boyle…
For that Huge Lesson

“We were all laughing at you;
no one is laughing at you now.”

You have put us all to shame
For who are we to place judgement on anybody else

Yes it’s a huge “wake-up call”
To remind us of our self-conceit, our cynicism

To look ourselves in the mirror
For the shame we so readily dish out

Thank you for that truly humbling experience;
we needed that

Yes it’s about time we learn to humble ourselves;
it’s about time we wake up

Thank you for that Huge Lesson…
That Invaluable Lesson

Perhaps it’s time for some re-assessment
Of ourselves, our values

Moral of the story:
“You may laugh at me now. But what does it matter?” Right?
