A story we all need to see …

On YouTube there are several moments that many of us get moved by. This was one that has moved me tremendously.

Here's a boy. Homeless, orphan, sold gums and sweets on the street. He loved to sing and this is why he applied … and was picked up to come to the Korean Talent Show. No relationships, sifaarish, bribes. Nothing.

Watch this:




We have a million kids like this on our streets. But with no feeling of music or art or anything, how do we train them to live and become the giants that some of them can become.

Thank you for posting this. It is very moving. I agree with your comments regarding all the forgotten children on this planet of 7 billion we live on.

That was very moving. I am not a huge fan of competitions like this but they can be life-altering. Sometimes, all it takes to radically alter the trajectory of someone's life is to give them a chance. How many millions of kids fall through the cracks because no one gives a damn :(

That teared me up. We need to do something about the kids who fall through the cracks. I have no doubt there is so much untapped talent out there as you said. Going to be thinking about this..

Thank you for sharing.
