What's the most unexpected skill you've ever picked up?
For me, I never expected to be skilled in listening to other's problems.
I wish I had the time to volunteer on a phone in crisis line, but at this time, I don't.
Had you realized you were good at something you never expected to be?
Have you any skillizils?

I'm also a good listener, and pretty good in singing. People say I have a good voice.

Listening really is a great skill or quality to have. If you had the time I know you would be really good on a phone crisis line.

I would because I have called it often enough myself.

@RebeccasFarm maybe one day you'll be able to work on that crisis line.

I would like to have the skill of public speaking.
What I'm good at is listening to other's problems like you.

I've always been rather introverted, but when I had a job doing product samples in Walmart, I found I was a better salesperson than I ever dreamed I could be.
Oshy, I think you would be excellent as a crisis therapist. You have a real compassion for people who are hurting.
And not much patience for those who don't deserve it!
