Probably one of the weirdest questions. First off, rest assured, I'm ok. My Holiday rant aside, I actually am having good days. A couple of rough patches, but good days so far.

I was just getting up in a bizarrely early morning. When for some reason while Marathoning the Buu Bits on DBZ Abridged. (RIP Akira Toriyama, you were a huge staple in my childhood. Hated some of the Buu Saga, but never held it against you. Only regret is not travelling to Japan to meet you, but if there is a memorial of him I would like to pay my respects.) At the same time for some reason this scene from The Breakfast Club was on my brain:

Specifically the scene where they have the detention equivalent to a group therapy session. One of the things that they talk about is their hidden talents. Such as the Goth Girl being able to write and play piano with her feet, Brian being able to cook a mean spaghetti and Claire being able to put lipstick on her using the strap of her bra.

It made me realize that myself and a lot of other people have that one or more hidden talent, skill or hobby, that they never told anyone or at the very least not told them all about it. In my case I'll list my talents:

1. I'm an amateur filmmaker, looking for the right movie to submit to a film festival. Got a story, just not much else.
2. I investigate paranormal stuff on the side. It's one of the reasons I stay in my town, because on top of it's high crime rate, it's one of many parts of Canada, that has a shit load of UFO and Ghost Stories. Some of which I have witnessed.
3. Part of why I love fiction and I'm somewhat good at writing it in my stories, is that I use Semi-Biographical elements. It's a form of expressionism similar to Gojira and the works of Hunter S. Thompson. I use real things in my life, but exaggerate the rest, giving an air of mystery on what my readers and viewers believe is real or otherwise. And in terms of enjoying fiction, I have an uncanny empathic ability to put myself in the shoes of not just relatable characters, but also other characters, based on understanding story and personality traits.
4. One secret to my workout is that I have been walking around many areas in Steel Toe Construction Boots for added resistance. I been wearing them for 3 months now so my legs are strong enough to run in them to the point where I can run faster if I switched to shoes. So basically I figured out a way to invent Super Speed.
5. I am able to appear and disappear on a whim, if anyone saw me walking the streets and looked away once, I was already gone. Some people thought I was stalking them, because I've mastered it to the point where I can pop up everywhere I go. Similar to Instant Transmission. That scared the hell out of me, because as far as I was concerned I was merely walking around many places and people just happen to see me.
6. Due to my disorder, my senses are dialed up. Which is good because it allows me to see, hear, smell, feel and taste more acutely, but the downside is, they're so sensitive that any overload could harm me physically.
7. When I get mad, I don't feel pain in a fight. Just recently two months ago, without even fighting back, I did get beat up in the face so badly, that I was bleeding. Yet instead of crying, begging or at least saying ow, I just kept threatening the guy. I didn't feel it until my anger subsided and even then all it felt was annoyingly sore.
8. I think outside the box a lot, which allows me to come up with new ideas.
9. Finally, my memory capacity is so good, that I have a section for my favourite music section so great, it's like playing a jukebox in my head.

And that's just a small few of what I can do. I have many and try to extend my palette on that one.

However while my talents are great, somewhat impossible to believe and borderline scary to some based on the context of where I got them, I know I'm not the only one with hidden talents.

Each and every one of you has that one talent, skill or hobby, that you haven't told anyone. It could be something you know, that your circle doesn't. Or it could be something that others know, but you're the best at it. The sky is the limit on that.

If it's something you can do very well, I suggest you apply it to your overall life. Personal and professional. It's high time the world knows what you're all made of.

In my case, I've only begun to realize what I can do, regardless of how crazy it sounds. A lot of you have something special about you, that will help the rest of you, fall into place and get a better chance at a better life.

Don't let your potential go to waste.

Take care, stay safe and stay tuned for more.
