List your talents! I challenge you!
Have you thought about the things you know how to do in a fresh light?
Recently I took several Lanyards to C.R.S. ST. Luke's hospital. I had a lovely woman come and seek me out. She addressed me so sweetly and asked me to bring them back on Thursday (payday). I sold one gave one to Dash Hawk's therapist and as I was leaving went back into the Lab and placed on on a womans neck who admired it . I have 15 of them completed. I spent 9 hours to make them. I will charge only $10. for them so that they might be able to be affordable.
Our talents are a "ministry" to the world around us. These same Lanyards would cost $20 easily, but thats not the point. It is brings beauty into the world. You bring beauty into the world. I have a friend who quilts, one who writes and another who crochets. One who is an advocate , one who scrap books, sew, beading another who cooks. One who pray actually several. There are so many talents that we dismiss and diminish.
Running a home, raising great kids, Talents are not just the "arts" they are the everyday things that we are under valuing because we have been taught too under value them in this culture.
During the time of cottage industry we learned the value of such talents and abilities. We treasured each other and even appreciated and treasured our own abilities.
List your talents!!!!!!!!! and post them.
Celebrate your talents and unearth them. Invest them and bring the beauty of who you are into this gloomy world.

Awe, its not so gloomy! Think of the smiles of joy your kids give you freely. Think of your husband holding you tight. Think of the cool breeze coming from an air conditioner that works on a hot summer day. Think of; well, you get the point...
