Talent

Talent is something I really don't have. I am competent at some things, but I don't really have a talent like in sports, dance, art, music, etc. I really do admire those who do have those talents, though. That's why I had a good time this afternoon. My daughter and I went to the Metropolitan Opera to watch a competition between 8 young opera singers (from 22-28 years old). They were competing to win a national young opera singer contest. It was like American Idol, but for opera singers. The performers were amazing. It was very exciting because we got to be in the room when they announced the winners. I feel so happy for the 5 people who won. They will probably have very successful careers in the field they love-- singing.
