Wishcasting Wednesday is here again. This week Jamie asks:
What Gifts Do I Wish To Share?
I wonder if everyone who ponders this question starts the same way as I do? With ‘what gifts do I even have?’ Which, of course, we all do. We all have gifts…but all too often those gifts are what we do quite easily and naturally so we don’t really notice how gifted we are. We look at other people and see their gifts much more easily than we do our own. Why is that? When do we become so bashful? Is it from years of expressing our gifts as a child and being mocked for it? Is it fear of being thought ‘immodest’ (like that’s the worst thing in the world to be?!)? Is it because we’re trained through our lives to identify where we are lacking in life and become mediocre in everything instead of concentrating on honing our brilliance?
This post is in danger of being hi-jacked by a bit of a rant, so let me bring it back to what gifts I want to share. I have a gift for helping people to see how wonderful they truly are, to help them to shine their light into the world. I have a gift for helping people to relax and enjoy their lives. I have a gift for writing inspiring blog posts (phew that was quite hard to write!). In fact, I have many gifts and I wish to share them all. And to share them all, I need to own them all, fully and completely. I have faith that the process of wishcasting will help me move towards that easily, just as last week’s wish did.
Get involved on Jamie’s blog, or leave a comment here. As you wish for yourself, I wish for you also.
Love

I can’t speak for everyone, but I definitely wondered what my gifts are. Great post – you are gifted and embrace it!
As you wish for yourself, so I truly wish for you also!
Great post! As you wish for yourself, so I truly wish for you also.
I am sure the answer is bubbling away under the surface, ready to come out soon. xx
Thank you Donna. xxx
So true. So hard to hone down our gifts and claim them as our own in a clear voice. As you wish for youself, I wish for you too.
Brava, brava, brava!
As Donna so wishes, I wish for her also!!
Wonderful wishes…
As you wish this for yourself, I wish this for you as well.
Great wishes, glad to see that you could make them real by writing them down. As you wish for yourself I also wish for you.
Very nice post. Thanks for sharing!
As Donna wishes for herself, I also wish for her!
Thanks. I still haven´t written about my gifts in the “what gifts do I have?” way you describe.
As Donna wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
I am wondering what I have to share as I work on this. Think I will take a break and come back to it.
I love your wish so full of love. As Donna wishes for herself, so I wish for her, too.
As you wish for yourself, I too wish this for you.
You summed up the whole issue that most of us have beautifully.
Absolutely. Well said Lucy. xx
Donna – Your wish speaks to me…. we need to hone our brilliance. As Donna wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
Lol Erin – I think you just jumped to another gift – driving a horse trailer!!! Hmm. And a gift for attracting the right people to help you build up your confidence in this gift! It is a squirm-alicious question isn’t it?! Be interesting to see what opens out as a result of this wish, and perhaps how we all answer a similar wish in a few months/years time. xxx
I loved this Donna! You’re so right about our reluctance to own our brilliance. This exercise was hard for me to take a moment to recognize that I do have gifts to give to the world. You have an amazing gift Donna :). As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you also :).
How wonderful that work about your gifts even when it was difficult. (I squirmed like mad writing about what I wish to share, then threw the lime light onto someone else) – As you wish to share your gifts, Donna, so do I wish for you do so as well.
