‘100%’ – Harry and Chris

“I’m all about accentuating awesomeness” – if I had a line that summed up my calling, it would probably be something like this one – encouraging people to notice and celebrate their awesomeness.

This is such a feel-good song with so many happy memories for me. Harry and Chris are a ‘comedy rap duo’ loved by my whole family from when we first heard/met them at Greenbelt. They always end their gigs with this song and so I have turned to many people in a variety of venues – friends and strangers alike – to tell them “you’re a flipping 10“.

 In a world that often pits us against each other, and has us judge and rank people, I think it’s great for us all to tell each other that they could not be any better than they already are. But it’s not just about others – we’re encouraged to remember that we too are ’10’s’. How many of us when we look in a mirror, notice with delight that we are wonderfully made?

Most of us are brought up in competitive cultures where we’re more likely to be self-critical and look for flaws, as the advertisers want us to look and find ourselves lacking so that we feel compelled to spend money instead of smile at our reflection and marvel at how lovely we are.

“Well I’m going to start a revolution today when I look in the mirror and say ‘I’m a flipping 10′”

And what happens when we take our own confident belief in the amazing beings we are, and join with other wonderful human beings who also know that they are fully loved and loveable? 

“Put them together, that’s 100%” Ah – to me that is indeed a wonderful world.
