I have often wondered about talent — where it comes from (yes from God, but the mechanics of the gift and how it can be used), how it manifests, what is different in the brain of someone who makes such a beautiful contrast between children joyously and freely flying their kite and a rock/aware soldier clearly keeping the field free.
It always leaves me aghast (in a good way).
