Blogging... blogging.... What do my talents have to do with blogging?

I can play violin...

I've tried doing one blog. A writing blog.

Needless to say... it failed. Just simply failed :) (Well, not in my eyes. Somewhere to write whatever I feel like!)
I just came across as a... what do you call it... highly emotional unbalanced teenager?
I guess I was when I started it... Still am... Not that I would actually admit it...

Talents are usually seen as, say... a musical ability at a particular instrument. Or being to sing like an angel like a couple of my good friends at school. Or being able to draw up a storm with brilliance and wonder. Or like my friend down the street, being able to write in such a way you just melt! Or being amazing at a sport! Maybe looking downright hot is one of those... *Looking into space. (jk...)

I have been told several times that those aren't the only talents. Everyone has talents afterall! And no one is the best at anything! Somehow there is always someone better. (Although I just might be the best at being jumpy and startled at anything. That one drives my mother crazy. "Sarah! You don't have to jump every time someone walks in the room! Cut it out!") But one of my teachers told me that she had been told she was good at giving people the benefit of the doubt. They also told her that was a talent.

But hey! That means trying to make something have a conversational feel when someone is reading it is a talent!

I think that if someone were to write an angry comment on my blog or something I said somewhere else, then I would be able to keep my head and not blow up. Lately I have found out that that is a talent. The only person I have really blown up at is one of my five brothers. I haven't even blown up at the other four and I live with them! But it is hard to get me mad (that is not an invitation to try to. That would just be pathetic). Though I may not always be able to explain things the best, I keep my head. And I want to explain! I also love talking (obviously). Especially people. I want to make them feel better and know that everything will be okay even if it doesn't seem like it. My phrase: " I promise that though it doesn't seem like it, everything will be okay. Everything is better than you think."
