Wow, L., this was a great and honestly inspiring rant. Thank you so much for writing it out. I get really annoyed whenever I see an athlete, for instance, praised as "talented." The truth is he or she may or may not be talented. What he is, is SKILLED. And skill, to me, reflects huge amounts of work. How many practice free shots did Michael Jordan throw growing up? Hundreds of thousands, I'm betting. Talent doesn't mean squat without the work that turns it into skill, and that goes for sports, academics, and everything else in life.

Sigh.
