Yours shines!<BR/><BR/>But, don't worry about beginning a sentence with "but." Read any British magazine, such as the esteemed The Economist, and you'll notice many such sentences. Apparently it's accepted style. Maybe you're a royalist at heart?annohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05102616203481686227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34850610.post-68595106663725766672008-09-23T11:54:00.000-04:002008-09-23T11:54:00.000-04:00Groovy...

I remember being put in with the first graders during reading time when I was in Kindergarten...so even back then, I thought I must be destined for great things.<BR/>But I dropped out of college, floundered from job to job until getting married.<BR/>I sometimes think I can write well on occasion...started a few long stories but never finished them yet.<BR/><BR/>And then I read a post like yours with great writing and I'm humbled even more! ;)<BR/><BR/>But truly, you make a wonderful point...all of our talents- big, small, mediocre- there are all from God. And when we fall short of wonderful, it's all the more reason to rely on HIM!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>~TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932066100979969014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34850610.post-80615844699594125992008-09-23T09:46:00.000-04:002008-09-23T09:46:00.000-04:00Wow!

You could have been writing MY life story, right down to the overuse of elipses and the bicycling (I took it a step further and displayed for the pitying onlookers my mediocrity in triathlons...) Are you a long-lost twin?

Interesting!<BR/><BR/>I love going to high school reunions, because those who thought they were so awesome in high school are just pretty much - mediocre! Or less!<BR/><BR/>Glad to see you back.
