Join me in the vortex won't you? Today, take 4 minutes and listen to this kid sing. He's wonderful. You don't even have to sit and watch for the 4 minutes, just start it and listen while you do something else but watching it is fun because you can tell he really feels the music. I felt inspired and joyful afterward (and clicked on all the links to hear him sing many other songs - I told you.......vortex).
THEN, if you'd like to spiral down even further and blow off the laundry, dusting and other general things you should be doing - find 8 minutes. Seriously, find them and use them to watch this one. Read the subtitles, discover his story. This soul who, at 5 years old, was alone wandering the streets, will inspire you.
We all have a song in our heart, he sure did. I can't stop thinking about him. I want to adopt him. He has inspired me today. Inspired me and made me weep like a small child. I'm weeping in the vortex of inspirational music videos on youtube when I should be working on jewelry and putting away laundry. Whatever. Vortex today, laundry tomorrow.

ok, I will definitely listen to join the vortex when I go home (after work) later:-). Have a lovely day. XX
What an inspiration those boys are!
ok, now I've been sucked into the vortex! As JLo would say, these 2 boys gave me goosies! Thanks for sharing xo
Oh my goodness, SO amazing!! I am watching those video again. Both boys are incredible and Im all in tears right now. Have a great one, my dear.
I've seen the first one... he's great. I don't think I'm ready for getting teary just yet in the second one, but later today when I need a pick me up, I'll watch that little guy.
Stunning! I so agree with you...he feels that song so strongly. Sometimes its time to get away from the busywork of our lives and just dive into that vortex.
Oh, that Korean guy is amazing. He brought tears to my eyes, not from his incredibly sad story. But from his singing, it was amazing! Thanks for sucking us all in to the vortex with you :)
OMG Jeanette I had such a good cry over this amazing young man. What a tragic but inspirational story. May the universe reward him greatly and may he heal some of his wounds.
Thank you so much for sharing.

The second I heard his name I knew he was Korean and as a child would have problems in Japan. There is much lingering hatred between Japan and Korea that goes back forever.
As much as I love living in Japan they have some real problems although many are getting better.
But even 20 years ago a part Korean child left on his own would have such problems.
Wonderful music today. Thank you...
cheers, parsnip
Wow. That was amazing.
yep - in my own little vortex at the moment - but it was fun to join mine up with this one :-o
Could only listen - I'm at work and they frown on youtube here. Imagine. ;) Such a wonderful voice. Will have to watch when I get home. I'm sure Abby will enjoy watching with me.
And you made me laugh with "vortex". I always call youtube "the rabbit hole". Lots of things have to wait until tomorrow when I fall down the youtube rabit hole. :)
Just wonderful!
When people have incredibly hard lives I hope for a wonderful rewards somewhere. Let's hope the Korean young man can start to experience only good from this point on. Teary stuff!
Both lads are inspirational.
What a voice!! I'm gonna adopt him too, truly moving. What a gifted little voice. xo
