At it's peak, over 28 million people were watching the Grammy's. Alas, I was one of them. Although the Grammy's are inherently an awards show, do not be mistaken, they are all about the performances. And I found it extremely interesting while watching Sunday Night, the extent to which each individual artist took their craft. Some were failed attempts at one "uping" while others were incredible displays of talent. Here are a couple peaks - you decide.
Beyonce "If I were a Boy"
Dave Matthews Band "You and Me"
Whether you love or hate what these artists did, from Pink to the Zac Brown Band, they did what we are all called to do... The best with what you are given. Most of us will never have a full-time posse to plan our every move, or an opportunity to perform before 28 million people (and lets get serious here people, most of us should never wear a full body leotard or mankini of anykind) but we all have something to give. Today, I am not sure how you feel about the whole, "I've got something to give" deal. I am pretty sure some of us are having a bad beginning of the week, or worse January was a complete right off, as I am also certain there are many that are kicking off the near year with an incredible vigor for life. Regardless of where you are at, start today. It is never too late to start. These Grammy winners had to start somewhere. Maybe it was a grade 2 talent show, or a College Glee club. Don't start worrying about the audience either. They are always going to be fickle. We all are at times. Do what you are born to do today, you will never regret it. (Well, okay, you may regret wearing a Hypercolor t-shirt the day you had PE but I digress)
