Everyone has some kind of passion, it could be gardening, making music, drawing, or anything like that! :)

I love killing lawns and turning them into gardens. I run a charity that asks homeowners to donate their backyards, then I bring in volunteers and we grow gardens. We give all of the produce away to food-insecure families in our city. Last year we gave away four tons of food. I started this four years ago and I've never been happier.

I wouldn't mind people using my backyard for a good cause. I'm not sure where you are or what's the name of your charity but you could share that too so we could contact you.

    Do you watch QI? It has some great 'useless' information. I spent a whole night at a friend's birthday talking about things from it with someone else. After a couple of minutes the rest of the group gave us weird looks and left us to it lol.

    I have multiple, so I'll list them in the order they occur to me Crochet. I LOVE Crochet. I started when I was two or three, and the student (me) has surpassed the teacher. (my mom). Recently a family friend and writer saw some of my work and offered to give me a page on her website! I've jumped at the chance. I'll post a link to her home page, and my page that's on her site, in the comments I also enjoy writing! I'm working on a suspense thriller/light horror at the moment. Gardening! I've been working in the garden with my parents since the womb! I've also turned that into a business, and will be seeing my first client this week! Art. It is so relaxing and rewarding. my sister trusted me with some body art she wanted. (Not tattoos, just body markers) I've done three separate murals for two different people, and am coming up on a third. Cooking is awesome! I don't bake though. They always turn out flat and dense Music!! I play 10 different instruments and got my own guitar yesterday! I've also recently started dabbling in basket making and broom making. And I'll end this list with READING.

    I don’t really have a talent exactly. But! I’m passably good at most things that I try. I can play piano and clarinet pretty okay. I sew, knit, and crochet. I vinyl wrap cars. I have a bunch of hobbies. I’m not particularly skilled at any one thing but I’m decent enough at what I do.

    My problem is I have too many! My family is pretty unusual in their passions and it's been passed down to me. Here are a couple: 1. Writing 2. Fantasy Photography 3. Sailing 4. Blacksmithing (no joke, we're having a forge put in next month) 5. Music (I play two instruments but my family average is 5) 6. Archery 7. Ceramics and potttery 8. Fire performance (Fire breathing and spinning)

    That sounds like an awesome school to go to, very cool! As for the photography, I'll have to make a post or something sometime. It's mostly things like witches, faeries, elements etc but I like anything that's a bit weird too. Cactus for a tongue and stuff like that. Sofas made out of turf.

    I thought that too, then I took an oil painting class at the community college. My paintings don't look like everyone else's but they are a direct reflection of me. The beauty of art is that the only thing that truly matters is that you have fun and it makes you happy. I think you probably have more talent than you think you do. You got this.😃

    Art is a biiiig area....could be painting, sculpting, mixed media, metalsmithing....the list goes on and on. Maybe you just need to find the medium that inspires you, then the skill will follow.

    People in my life think it's painting, but I'm more passionate about the paranormal, interior design, travelling, exploration and natural disasters. (I feel so trapped and constricted in this place.)

    ARCHITECTURE! My favorite style is probably mid-century modern or contemporary. I like to drive around and judge the houses I pass by. One of my favorite pastimes is looking at terribly executed houses on the internet and raising my blood pressure. Most of these houses feature Palladian windows, an abundance of turrets, and unwanted pillars...bleh.

    A lifelong passion/obsession with vinyl records. My record collection will never be complete because there is always, always a new release or a missing single/E.P./album... Rummaging through record fairs and record shops is utter bliss- because there is always a gem to be found. It's not a cheap hobby at all- but that moment where the needle drops and you are overwhelmed by the intro to a cherished piece of music- or a new and exciting piece of music- it's worth every penny......

    I have lots of passions, but some of the more notable ones are products of my combined love of shopping (thrift, yard sales, etc), traveling and exploring, history, nature, fun and games, and arts/crafts…. such as, I collect ALL sorts of miniature things, historical knick knacks, vintage photos, postcards and artsy print items; I enjoy creating explorative things like time capsules and geocaches, and scavenger hunts/ treasure maps for my kids; I design and sell unique decorative magnets out of the things I find; I play around with gags and pranks; I collect certain kinds of rocks, some of which I paint and then leave in various places along my travels; and right now, my #1 passion is building my 9-hole miniature golf course in my backyard (a dream since childhood). I just re-read my list and realize I’m either pretty creative or pretty weird. Or both, more likely. I’m ok with that, I feel lucky to be to enjoy silly things like these. So many people are so damn sensitive and serious, like they’re adverse to feeling joyful. I’m 51 years old and I’m never bored, always working on something that makes me (and others, often times, too) happy. Maybe one day you’ll see a trace of me: I have been known to permanently adhere sparkles and gems in funny and/or very public places,
