Re: Come on...let it out. What are or were you really, really good at?

I love to read too much. My father always said I would read toilet paper if I could. Total addiction
I can tell so many stories
They are pretty good too
I also have special attachments to horses and dogs

I can do a lot of things well, but I'm more of a "jack of all trades and master of none."

Singing

 

I’ve been singing since I was a child. I am in my 50s now. I have sung in bands, at music festivals, for charity events, etc. I have made a few recordings in a studio. I am also a soloist at my church. People are always complimenting me on my singing voice.

I have very strong memory skills, especially with numbers.  

 

I sense things about people; pretty much know from the get go whether I like, or trust them, and my gut feelings are usually spot on.

I used to be good at drawing, haven't done it in soooo many years.  Comes in handy once in a while to help my daughter with homework.  Always been crafty at making things.

For me it is telling stories. Have a vivid memory going back to my childhood. My family was unique so there are many stories.

@sfnative, Great question! At 65 I've been doing a lot of reflecting on my life. I'm no one special, have done nothing extraordinary and know I've never lived up to my potential. But I have felt for a very long time that I was put here to do "more." I sure wish that "more" would reveal itself soon as I'm sure not getting younger. I'd like to think that my time here mattered.
