I keep telling my nephew and nieces to pay attention to what really interests them . . . I wish I could remember more of what really excited me when I was younger, because as I become more aware of past lives it does seem very relevant.
As for talents? Well . . . it seems lately I am digging into past life warrior stuff . . . so it seems I was very adepted at torturing people. Don't intend to take that up again this time, though!
