Thoughtful Thursday

Lately I've been thinking about where my niche is.. what are my talents?  I know I'm a mother but I've been feeling like I shouldn't be wasting my talents (if I have any).. I know there's a scripture about not wasting what Heavenly Father has given you.. but I'm spacing out on what it is. BUT my beautiful sister Sarah "pin"ed a quote and I love it!! It pretty much sums it up..

See? Perfect...

So that quote and this one:





..got me thinking that I need to explore being creative... explore using my talents... explore what my talents are! And I know what talents aren't just being crafty.. but there are musical talents, personality talents, people talents (like being a people person and being a person everyone can turn to.. I think that's an awesome talent!!)

I've made a list in my head.. and eventually I want to do a whole post on what I am planning to do to explore all of this but for now I leave you with these questions to think about...

Are you wasting your talents?  Do you know what talents and abilities Heavenly Father blessed you with? If you haven't figured them out (like me), then what is your next step to figuring it out?

Hmm this is a good one, we just had a lesson on this in Relief Society. I think some of your talents are definitely being a great mother, a good worker, being sweet, and technically savy:) I don't know you that well, but that's off the top of my head.
