Someone has said that when we're born our talents are our gifts from God. What we do with our talents throughout the course of our lives well, that's our gifts given back to God. I believe there is some truth in that line of thinking.What I'm learning however, is that you don't have to have a huge talent of any kind to make a difference in the lives of the people you care about. You just have to be willing, to use the talent you have and make a difference.
There will always be those times in life where you think, if I'm not a doctor or l lawyer or a politician or a celebrity of some kind what real difference can I make in the lives of others? I am here to tell you, you can make a great difference. Sometimes just offering a word of encouragement when someone really needs it can make a huge difference. Today I heard on the news a group of total strangers all saw an accident and stopped what they were doing long enough to lift a burning car off of a man who had been trapped there. That act of bravery took no particular talent just some people who decided to make a difference in that helpless man's life. Remember, there is no shame when you try and fail, but it is a shame when you fail to try. Sometimes, the difference you make, makes all the difference. As always, my friends these thoughts remain, just some words, to think on.
