Here's a fun and simple topic for this week's Weekend Assignment:
Weekend Assignment #101: Name a talent that you don't have that you wish you did. This can also include talents you have a little bit of, but wish you had more.
I'd love to play piano (although I wouldn't be willing to devote the time it takes to learn). I wasn't going to do this assignment, simply because I don't do anything really well. I've never been motivated to try to excel, which is probably why I sit here doing a weekend assignment instead of something that might change the world. I wish I had more of EVERY talent I have. I wish I cared enough about something to go ahead and try to do it well. Alas, I'm lazy. So I simply make do.
Extra credit: Do you have any completely useless talents?
Yes... I still chat occasionally in a chat room or two and know all the smilies and LOL's and such. Totally a useless talent.
If you want to play, be sure and leave a link to your entry at "By The Way".

Mosie....I wouldn't say you have no talents....you love horses and other animals....and have such a way with them....I don't....you make beautiful music on that Gibson...songs YOU wrote...I know I have heard them in person...I wish I could play the Gibson...you have a way of making people feel good about themselves...you enjoy people..well most of the time..LOL...you are free minded...down to earth...caring...I could go on and on...and I don't care to have you put yourself down....cause I know you....Hugs...Ora....guess I said too much already and got myself in hot water....?????
I guess it's how we view ourselves. I don't see you as lazy or untalented. I see a woman who loves life and who shares that love with others. When you share a walk with the dogs, I feel like I'm walking with you. I'd like to play the piano, too, but like you, I don't want to have to take a lot of time to do it well. Alas . . .

In reading your journal a while I was thinking you may have a talent in cooking. Paula
I like what firestormkid said! I have to agree 100%!

knowing all the smilies a pretty good talent in my opinion :)
I bet you are using your talents well; I bet they just are ones people might not recognize. Like I bet you have a great gift of encouragement and comfort.
betty
I only have gone in a chat room a few times, well more than a few but I know all the computer lingo too, how sad is that.
