Goals...not the soccer kind

Ah. The new year. We all know that this time of year comes with new goals and resolutions. Along with the universal resolve to exercise, a lot of talk has been going around about developing new talents or even rekindling old talents.

Maybe I should pick up an Etch-a-sketch again.

Over Christmas break I found this in a box. It has been shaken a bit, but you can faintly see the outline of a groovy man (in bell-bottom pants and curly hair - hence the groovy) standing next to a leafy tree with a bench near and a partially cloudy/sunny sky. I probably etched this one 9 or 10 years ago.
The next picture is from 6 or 7 years ago when I etched a portrait for a service auction. My only problem is, what the heck good is a crumby talent like this? Perhaps God used it to draw the construction of the earth.
