The most human moment I ever saw captured on video. Warning: hard to keep dry eyes!

I don't know if this has been already posted, since it is a few years old, but I never saw it before. Just an incredible tribute to the human spirit:

Who knows what music she has to share with the world? Kind of reminds me of another blind kid I use to listen to when I was young:

I've seen my baby granddaughters react in a somewhat similar manner when I play the 12 string guitar for them.

But not in such unadulterated purity. This child just lets the music consume her consciousness completely.

They need to get her on an instrument ASAP. Jeff Healey made great music even with his handicaps.

He is the reason I play and play some more.
