Everyone has talent. What is rare is
the courage to follow the talent to the dark places where it leads. ¾Erica Jong
When I
first read this quote, I thought oh, why
does having a talent always have to be some dark emotional thing? Upon
further inspection, I’ve come to understand that what the quote is saying is
that your talent will lead you to places you could never have imagined.
Exploring a talent means stepping into the unknown, discovering the possibility
that you have no limits. Going into the depths of your talent and potential is
dark at first, simply because you had yet to unveil all that is there.
Boom.
And that
is how you break down a quote. It amazes me that I am not an English teacher.
It really does.
