The Kindness of Celine Dion

On my previous blogs, I have written and posted videos of this incredible girl from the Philippines, named "Charice" (The Singing Sensation), (Part 2)(Part 3). Charice was seen in You Tube because of her powerful singing voice and as what Celine Dion described as "someone that can blow the roof of Madison Square Garden". First Ellen DeGeneres invited her on "Ellen" show, then "Oprah". David Foster took over and gave a new meaning in Charice's life in terms of her singing talent.

Since age 3 years old Charice had been drawing Celine Dion, hoping one day in her dreams, she will be singing with her favorite singer. Her life totally changed after Celine Dion and Oprah Winfrey made her dream come true.

All of us dream big and sometimes when things go wrong we stop. We give up. We think "we're not worth it". But look at this girl, Charice. From one singing competition to the other, but never gained stardom because people tell her she does not have the quality of being a star. Did she gave up? well...almost but he mother encouraged her to keep going and make herself better and not to stop.

Where did it took her? it took her to her dreams. It reminds me of what mom tells me. Don't give up and keep reaching for your dreams but let God lead the way, don't go ahead of God's plan for your life.

Watch this video.
