    I've always thought everyone on this earth has that one talent, gift, or specialty (sometimes several), but unfortunately for some their values or uncontrollable outside circumstances veer them away from the path that helps them realize what it is they're incredibly good at.

    I often wonder how many people could have influenced the world in ways that would have brought them and others far more fulfillment than what the path they chose has.

    Similarly I wonder sometimes what seemingly insignificant choices some of those we regard as great influential people might have made differently that would have caused them to never see that coveted life they lead.

    Btw, I'm a jack of all trades and have come to realize that in itself can be a specialty. Also a good problem solver too :)

    • Totally agree with you- values and philosophies they've accepted can veer someone away from their path.bklyndroobeki
