It's said that each person has one special gift that makes them different from everyone else. I think the special gift I have is beauty. I want a job where I can make God proud of me, and looking pretty and modeling feels like it might be a little bit vain to me.But nonethless, thats my special gift and I have no clue what to do with it. I sort of wish I was a genius and could cure the world of cancer, so.. I'd like you all to answer. What is one gift from God you have that is useless? or you don't really care for?

p.s- I know all gifts from God are awesome because their from Him, but you know..

You ever come up with what you think is a really cool title? You don’t have a painting in mind yet but you have a title? You ever do a painting to fit a title?

Or perhaps you find a magnificent empty frame at a yard sale or at a thrift shop somewhere and buy it because that wonderful old frame needs a painting inside it. You don’t have an exact idea for a painting but you have a frame waiting for you to paint it?

Example: A friend and I were talking about relationships and it got around to talk about love triangles. Then she wondered if love triangles between lesbians was as difficult as triangles between men and women. The phrase ‘menage a trois’ was mentioned and I thought up the title ‘Menage A ****.’ Now I’m stuck with this stupid, but cool, title and no painting to go with it. All I know is I’ll end up doing a painting I’ll call ‘Menage A ****.’

What about your off-the-wall inspirations?

The french owned those lands but they were tired after the haitinas who were slaves revolted and killed the french,. The french were tired and gave the u.s the louisiana territories. Historically this was not taught because the americans did not want the american blacks to hear about the revolt because they wanted blacks to believe they were inferior. The haitians had inferior weapons when they defeated the french.The ethiopians also defeated the italians with inferior weapons as the itialians also thought africans were stupid.

Here it is.....
Time does not pass when snow is falling --/
only the silence falls. Trees glisten, trembling/

as a body trembles beneath a white sheet,/
the room cold, shock of warm hands, feet/

twisted and touching feet. The snow fell/
and settled on her hair, diamonds to tell/

the story of her beauty, silence in timelessness,/
eyes saying stay, her whispers wordless./

That night I woke to the silence of snow. Her arm/
was a season touching me, white, almost warm,/

a light in darkness. The first snow falling/
as only silence falls. The world lies listening./

Time passes as the seasons pass. Leaves sprouting/
their tragic wings, November bravely shouting/

its hypnotic soliloquy to a December sky, frail/
and innocent, fear of first love as first things fail:/

time stills in my mind like unbroken snow,/
her face white and lovely at the window.

Things seem follow a pattern which we are all a part of, we age physically, and mentally we change throuhout our life collecting experiences, creating and building ourselves a life.
What does it mean to age, to live in the present while being aware of the future and remebering the past, while the present being what seems the only thing thats real? where is the past now?and the future?where do these two times go? and finally is the present the only present, the only thing thats real?

sorry, english is not my mother toung.
