#258 / The Golden Buzzzer

 

AGT stands for "America's Got Talent." You may well have heard of this show, which airs on NBC, apparently twice a week. I watch hardly any television, and while I had heard of AGT, I knew virtually nothing about the show - just that it was some kind of "talent show." Then, I got an unsolicited message sent to me by way of my Facebook profile page. What I got in that message was just a quick snippet of.... something. I wasn't quite sure what. 

I tracked it down, though, and it turns out that one of my Facebook Friends was moved by an AGT episode featuring Richard Goodall. My friend had sent me that snippet. I am sending off to you, by way of this blog posting, what I found when I tracked down that snippet sent to me by my Facebook Friend. He was moved. And I was moved. And I think you might be moved, too. 

The following video invitation is for a ten-minute trip to the AGT stage, and unless you already know about Richard Goodall and his "Golden Buzzer" (and if you're an AGT fan you probably do), I am betting that you, like me, might be brought to tears - or pretty close - by the following video excerpt, which certainly demonstrates that "America's got talent," and which can also be seen - and I think very importantly seen - as an intimation of how truly glorious and full of promise all of our lives really are.

Here's a piece of advice, to go along with the video, and to follow up on my statement that we should realize how truly glorious and full of promise all of our lives really are. When you have that thought...

Don't stop believing*
