I love to do so many things:
I love to sing - but do it in the shower, when home alone, or in the car. With groups too. But, I am not the next American Idol. and that is OK because I love to sing.
I love to read - almost anything without too much gore or explicit and detailed sex. I love the feel of the books ... and the ease of my Nook. But, I am not an editor or critic, and that is OK because I love to read.
I love to go to the theater. Again, I have my favorites. But, I know I am a ham actor. But I am not a professional actor, playwright, or a director, and that is OK because I love to see others perform.
I love to sew. I make shirts and other clothing. I make comfortable clothes. But I am not a couture designer or model, and that is OK because I feel great in what I make.
I love to quilt. It lets me be free with color and design. I make comfortable quilts and maybe a few artistic wall quilts. But I am not a worldknown quilt designer or artist, and that is OK because it gives me another opportunity to be me, quilt for others, and have a great community surround me.
It is more than OK to do what we love and not be at the peak of that realm. It is more to give us peace and joy. Those who are at the peak inspire me to be better and I am thankful for them.
