Thank you for bringing "Your Voice" to the world Nicholas!

Nicholas David, extraordinary talent who may be the Pied Piper leading us all to take another look at who we truly are, where we need to be and why gratitude needs to imbed our daily lives.

We saw our Eagan home boy Nicholas David live his dream these past months on "The Voice". Our hearts soared and we were thrilled to see opportunity meet talent in the world's stage. Those of us fortunate to remember Nick from his Encore performance in high school remember well that we knew he was destined to go far. It's been a long journey for Nicholas from way back then to last night's season finale. Making it to the final three was spectacular and although we wanted him to be first with all of our hearts, we already knew he had achieved greatness, the recognition he deserved after the long road leading there.

When one has the courage and confidence to truly be who they are, express it, live it daily and connect with inner source it is a moving & beautiful thing.  Nicholas has inspired countless others to go forward without a need to conform to the norm.  Being and expressing yourself, living in love and gratitude is a mantra not modeled fully or often in our superficial society. It's what the world needs now, wouldn't you say? So the value of communicating that message to the masses is as powerful  as the profound talent that powers it forward. We know that Nicholas has gained a whole new audience and will continue to live his dreams, his gift, his music. Years ago, another Minnesota musical talent touched the world and became immortal. His name was Bob Dylan........... We love you Nicholas!

I'm currently reading the sequel to The City of Ember, The People of Sparks by Jeanne DuPrau, it'sRead More part of a 4 book series. I would recommend that you read The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis I love it because it's so magical and you get to imagine almost the entire thing so clearly.

Hi Hanna! Izzy, its is a "Blast" if you know what I mean. Every year on my birthday IRead More have rode in the Eagan 4th of July Funfest Parade with my brother's Cub Scout Pack when I was younger and now with the Girl Scouts. I'm so excited and proud to be riding with the Eagan Ambassador's Program this year. How cool will that be? When is your birthday?

Just wanted to clarify that I am not an Ambassador but am an Ambassador Candidate for the 2013-14Read More year. After rereading my post I realize it sounds like I am already an Ambassador, not true. Just a candidate for now. Thanks!
