Of talents and gifts

So today I attended a rehearsal for an upcoming instrumental concert organised by my (used-to-be) violin teacher. And from this rehearsal I realised several things in particular. There will always be people who appear to be showered with numerous talents, and there will be those doing what they can, getting by with what gifts they have. There will always be someone better than you cause that's just how it is. And of course the reverse is true. You will always be better than someone at something. Today I learned that if one wishes for oneself to be seemingly the best , you will never be satisfied, and that's the truth. Haha, just like today, if I choose to wallow in the fact that my best can still be less than someone else's normal standards, I'll be doomed for life. Locked up in my own self-built dungeon, never seeing the light of happiness and contentment. So, I have come to the realisation today. I'll just do what I do best and do it well . M
