The Uniqueness of Things I Could Do and Could Not Do
Life is in phases, many a time there are things we thought we couldn't do but life ends up revealing some hidden potential in us. Just like I have a lot of things I think I could do that I have not done.

The one thing I think I could do that I have not done is to sing in a large congregation. Singing has been my hobby right from childhood. When I was young I joined the church choir. I always look forward to when we have rehearsal, It's always a joyful moment for me. Whenever I feel lonely, I do play music. I was so fond of music but one major thing I have not done is singing or leading songs in a big congregation. I'm always scared of making mistakes. I don't have the confidence to face a crowd and this has always been steering itself right in my face.
There were times I wished I had the opportunity to face the audience. But anytime those opportunities come I run away as a result of fear. I'm always shy and the thought of not making mistakes has kept me away. Many times when my friends hear me singing they always commend me that I have a good voice but yet I kept hiding from my true-self.
There was a time in my life when I stopped attending rehearsal thinking singing was not for me because of my fears. Even though I love music but yet I have never sing in public.

One thing I never think of that I could do that I'm doing is writing. I never loved writing while growing up and I see it to be boring. But as life goes on, writing becomes a thing I do with joy. The journey to the act of writing started while I was doing my seminar as an undergraduate. It was really a challenging one for me because I thought I couldn't write. It took me days before I could coordinate my thoughts. I started just anyhow. But thank God that I have good friends who guide me on how to write and it has been getting better day by day.
Coming to Hive has really improve my skill on writing. I get to write almost everyday on Hive which makes writing more easier to do. Writing daily has made me better. If i was told i would write blogs, articles and research project when i was young, i will say No. But has life goes on, i got to realise that i have the potential to write.
The undergraduate seminar was a push for me in discovering my potential in writing. Although at first, it seems difficult, but i realise that the more i write the more i get better.
Now, writing has become what i enjoy doing. I was able to write my MSC project myself, It was indeed an amazing one to do. And I thank God that I'm getting better at it day by day.
Thanks for reading

Oh no! If you have a nice voice then you should find a way to get the confidence to sing because you never know what could happen to you after that. It could open huge opportunities for you, don’t you think?
You are right💯💯. Thanks for stopping by
Hive has indeed made many people take up the writing challenge. And we find ourselves excelling in it.
Hive has also helped me in many ways improve my writing. I'm glad I found this platform
@creativepearl is just like you as regards singing. She can sing but yet she doesn't do it and yet it is for the same reason as you. I think you need to start seeing yourself as something more and try to stop being afraid of the crowd or caring about what people may think or say about you. It is your time to shine with your talent, then do so.
