I’m a bit reflective today. While I attended a funeral today and was
listening to what was shared about the
person’s life, I was once again struck how sometimes our talents and abilities
that we have performed at work or in earlier years may get put away or buried.
Is there a talent, ability, hobby, or task that you use to love to do and could
share with others? Today libraries often make space open for hobbies to be done
over time. I have thought of a few
hobbies and crafts: wood working, welding, bronzes, decorating with hand-made
stamping, scrap-booking, hand quilting, sewing, crochet, knitting, weaving,
spinning, tatting, canning, make candles, wood or soap carving, canning,
calligraphy, photography, restoring antiques, model making, miniature planes or
drones, postage stamp, coin, insect collecting, writing, editing, drawing,
painting or pen and ink, calligraphy.
Can you teach others the art of dog training, riding a horse, gardening, decorating, or even repairing a car, machine sewing? There might be someone hoping to find someone about a specific hobby, ability or talent that you have. Don't let your talents be hidden, share with others in your own sphere of influence, or maybe you could try Pinterest (www.pinterest.com)! Join a group that enjoy the same type of hobby or task. Together you can grow together.
