What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

I’ve never considered myself to have any secret abilities.

There’s one I wish I had.

For instance, the ability to pick up languages. I have friends who pick them easily. I’m not one them.

For example, I was raised around people speaking Spanish. My father spoke it. Yet I speak very little of it. I took years of Spanish in school. JR tried to teach me. Either my toungue isn’t that talented or my brain isn’t

I lived in Germany, and once I could converse in it. By converse, I mean I could order a meal. I could get directions. I could get myself in trouble, but not get myself out of it.

Not anymore.

There’s one final ability I wish I had. That the ability to make music. Everyone around me can play keyboards or guitar.

I can at least sing.

I guess I should consider myself blessed that I can play the Radio
