  • Why are you idiots talking about whether or not she mentioned God, instead of focusing on her hugely moving and eloquent speech?

  • This is the sort of inspiring Human Being that must be used to help inspire and motivate the disenfranchised and disempowered and disaffected who took part in the England riots.

  • @GetMeThere1 You are really messed up. So sorry. :(

  • She seems great but does anyone else feel like her parents are kind of messed up for that... I'm just saying.

  • She piss me of!

  • so she likes elephants or something?

  • what the hell is wrong with the few dislikes

  • Sorry. I'm a very optimistic person and believe STRONGLY in "attitude" and "positive perspectives." But....I really find nothing terribly interesting or substantive in this talk. Mostly, it was a lot of emoting and breathlessness which SUGGESTED something inspiring...but ultimately, there really WASN'T....anything there.

    I'm glad she seems to feel that she's worked out some of her personal stuff...but that's about all I can say.

  • VERY TRUE WHAT SHE SAID ABOUT BELIEF IT COLD TAKE YOU VERY FAR...

  • this woman is truly inspiring

  • Amazing video.
