Talents For The Home

When you were a kid, was there something you did that turned out better than your friends?
Maybe it was dodge ball, tether ball, football, baseball or something else, it was just easier for you. Maybe it is cooking, or decorating or driving efficiently.
Sometimes you are pretty good at some things but because it appears effortless to others, they think you are so much better.
Sometimes it was frustrating when you're a child because sometimes kids aren't very understanding when someone else can't match their performance.
If it's happened to you---great! If it hasn't happened to you, keep reaching for something because it's a great feeling.
What's the secret--mostly it's the confidence to try something new.
I have a very close friend who has gotten into the investment of real estate. I've worked building houses and other projects and I've been able to help her make some repairs and they turned out great. The truth is I worked my buttocks off and I'm really tired.
It was great to have others compliment you on the work you do. So often in our lives we work at jobs or projects that take so long that sometimes they don't get resolved or completed for us to reflect and relish. Too bad, because it feels good.
You remember Jesus, his story was in all the papers. Jesus explained how under-appreciated he was in his own hometown. "Nothing good ever came out of Nazareth," it's reported.
Often times as adults, it's even more pronounced that we are under-appreciated, particularly in our own hometown.
When you can use your skills and get the praise for those skills, it makes you feel great. It makes you feel like a kid again. And feeling like a kid is a wonderful feeling. I hope you can feel like a kid again.
