my sketchbook - talents
Two days in a row, right? Has to be some kind of record for me.
I found this quote today and it totally inspired me.
Hope you're inspired, too.
Because truer words were never spoken.
Use whatever talents you possess:
the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there
except those that sang best.
