What is a talent that you once had that you lost over the years that you wish you could rediscover it?

Question

Believe it or not when I was in high school I was a pretty good poet. Now I can't write a damn poem to save my life. It's been a long while since I've done it. I feel as if I've lost something but I don't know what. So what's your hidden or lost talent?

Answer 1

I was a really good dancer from age five all the way through high school. We were all part of a touring company that brought dance alive to children from all parts of the country..... as well as internationally. The time committment was unbelievable. And I got to a point in school where I just couldn't juggle everything. I quit. *sigh* I think I just was so stubborn when my director expected my whole life to be nothing but dance that I never danced again. I see people perform on stage today and I get all critical thinking, 'Oh man I could so do better than that." But can I? I mean its been 20 years!! I'm sure I'd pull a muscle first step out........ and throw out my back to the point where I could never walk again. lol Gosh..... its such a shame when you sit and let a talent go to waste. I'll really never forgive myself for that one. *sigh*
