The talent of giving up.

While I do have multiple abilities that can benefit from practice, life happens and I give up on them. Many people would do anything to have the same opportunities and leanings.

Mostly grief stands in my way.

I used to sing, stopped when my sister passed away.

I used to write exquisite classic arabic poetry that was published, stopped because a relationship crumbled.

I learnt gymnastics and playing the piano, stopped when my grandparents passed away.

I used to paint and sketch, stopped as the grief over Ibahnini took its course.

Whenever I try engaging that, all I feel is pain so I don't bother. Other givers know how to transform that pain to gifts, I move away and find something else in me to tie to life.

I do miss what I used to do and to be, sometimes.

Giving up is the Best of All.

Ultimately, we all have to do. Some are enforced.
Blessed are those who indulge willingly.
