Lee Dewyeze: Inspirational American Idol Story

American Idol Season 9 is starting to bring forth some talent and inspirational stories. Music always inspires and uplifts. What makes American Idol such a popular show is that it puts together music with inspirational stories of people who are overcoming odds to stand up for their dreams and live their life with purpose and passion. I love watching the growth of the contestants as they learn how to live their passion and inspire others in the process.

I am always overcome with emotion as I watch their stories and talents unfold. Last night I was particularly moved by Lee Dewyeze’s inspirational story. He talked of how he was kicked out of high school because of bad choices he made. Here is a young man who understands his own power and the power of choice. He revealed a profound statement.

I was kicked out of school, not because I was bad but because I made bad choices.

It was because Lee Dewyeze understood this that he could make a better choice. No matter what your past is or how bad it may seem, you can make a different choice. The mistakes and ghosts of your  past happened not because you are “bad” but because you made bad choices. If it happens because you are “bad”, then you have no power to make a change. You are not in control of your life. Understanding this difference will present you with a whole new world of opportunity. Understanding this gives you back your power. You are in control you can make a better choice.

Lee Dewyeze took back his power and understood that his future was in his hands and he decided to make it better. He decided to live his purpose and become a powerful instrument of inspiration and passion.  Lee’s power and love for his music purpose comes through his performances so magnetically that you don’t really even notice his slight pitch problems. The energy that comes from living the passion of his purpose instead locks on to you and inspires you to do the same.

Lee Dewyeze is a powerful, inspirational who knows and understands his own journey. About American Idol he says:

I know this is exactly what I’m supposed to do. There is no back up plan

And that is the power of choice and using your power to live your life’s purpose.

Thanks for the inspiration Lee Dewyeze. I’m so looking forward to watching you grow and see the inspirational, musical magic you create for years to come.
