Humbleness

I saw a short clip of this man in a preview for the show America's Got Talent. I have never seen this show, and never been interested in this show, until I saw the preview. He was on the season premiere and after watching it, I was hooked. I've seen every episode this year, sometimes more than once, and that's saying a lot because its on twice a week, sometimes two hours per show. Kevin Skinner stirred feelings inside me that I have never felt before. I've been moved by musical performances times before, but never by someone so polite, so genuine, so down to earth and as real as real can be, and so humble. I fell in love the second I heard his beautiful voice, saw his emotions flowing through him and his guitar. Saw him forgetting everyone was watching, as if it was just him and his guitar. I HATE country music. I have only ever listened, willingly, to Johnny Cash and Garth Brooks. They don't have a genre, they are their own musicians, like Kevin. I will buy every album Kevin puts out, I will go hang out with cowboys if he ever comes here to play a show, I will love him til the day I die and then some.

I don't really have a point to this post except to show you someone who truly deserves to be seen. He is as pure as pure can be, and as wonderful as wonderful can be, and he doesn't even know it. He doesn't even know it. God I love people like that.
