Thanks for the cool words. Actually, my own definition of 'talent' is 'motivation' and 'inspiration'. The talent is staying motivated through the ups and downs...and working thorugh it even when one doesn't feel creative or inspired. Do not compare your 'talent' with anyone elses...just stay motivated and keep expressing through your chosen medium(s).
