If you could have any natural born gift, what would it be and why?
For example, a photographic memory, a fantastic singing voice, etc.
I would love to be an artist and be able to paint landscapes, nature, people. I am so amazed at things artists can turn out and I would have loved a life making my living doing something so fantastic.
I find it very difficult to answer this question in the sense that the greatest gift we have is to have been born human, so I would have to say maybe the gift to play a musical instrument without having to study it.
I would choose to have wisdom well beyond my years, so I could help people and live my life in the best possible way. You know, like King Solomon in the Bible, who asked God for wisdom and is still known as the wisest man ever to live.
Every normal person to this life has at least three talents r gifts that when used properly can make him survive and even enrich him/her in this life.
My obvious talent that draws people to me...well for those who know me and the word of mouth spread...it's my ability to see "flashes" of past, present, and future life of the person who I focus my mind in a given moment. Personally, I don't like this "gift". I hate the label "fortune-teller"...I am not...I just see "flashes" and tell them what I see and what I see happen exactly.
I would choose the gift to heal. May be after all I do have it, it just needs to be redirected and trained.
a eidetic memory! I love knowledge, and being able to remember a lot more would be very very good. although i have a pretty good memory as it is
I would have a strong clear voice to sing anything I wanted. I would love to be able to sing my heart out and sound good when I do it!
Although I am thankful for the gifts that God chose to bless me with; I do wish He had given me some singing vocals. Oh how I wish I could sing!!
To move about invisibly in order to know what people do when they think nobody sees them, and also to have fun.
Salesmanship...including the ability to speak to a group - because whatever you are trying achiever in life is always so much easier when you can convince others to accept your vision, buy your product or give you a chance to prove yourself.

If you have a photographic memory, what do you do to forget the bad memories?
by Sandra Greaney 11 years ago
Why does your brain remember things?Why is it always more easy to recall useless facts that you know, compared to more important facts and figures that you really need to know.

Everyone dies, but not everyone livesWe have pushed Death away from Life, the dying away from the living - all in order to impose the illusion of control on the uncertainty of change. We have lost touch with the natural world and with our place in it as mortal animals. We have forgotten "how...
