Your gift

What is your gift, your special little skill?
What brings you joy, your days with which to fill?
Do you enjoy singing, or artwork that you draw?
Are you kind to others, do you fill others with awe?

Are you a hard worker, able to give your best?
Do you find it easy to be faster than the rest?
Do you have an eye for detail when quality counts?
What is your special skill that you are passionate about?

This special talent is a gift that you were given.
And in case you don’t know your purpose to living,
This special skill you must share with the world.
It’s a treasure to share, your own valuable pearl.

When you know your gifts, you can find ways to give back.
And as we share our skills, we’ll slowly take up slack.
Slack that exists, that makes our world unfair.
By sharing our gifts, many burdens are easier to bear.

So, what is your purpose? Is it clearer to you now?
Will it be a blessing for others to allow?
If you are still puzzled, ask your dearest friends.
They will help you see where your skills can lend.

And as you bless others with your skills,
Your own bucket will be overfilled.
Filled with love and joy in the simple things.
Sharing your gifts with others, many blessings bring.

So, share your skills with others and hone them for good.
Miracles can happen if everbody would.
Encourage others to try to do their very best.
Point out their talents, cheer them on their quests.

As everyone shares their special gifts with each other,
The world will be a better place with richer, vibrant colors.
Do not get discouraged as you perfect your skills.
Life is a continual journey; each day is yours to fill.

So, share away your skills and reap a blessing too.
Others’ gifts will bless, as they are drawn to you.
You are a blessing my dear, so always keep that in mind.
May many treasures be on your path to find.
