The Empty Pot

So I just got a new picture book. I love it!

It's about a child who tries to grow a flower for the emperor but it doesn't grow no matter how what he tries. All the other young children have beautiful flowers in their pots. This young boy has to decide if he should present his pot to the emperor or not.
How often do we have to make that same choice? We look at what talents other people have and think that what we have just isn't good enough. Do we ever wonder if we should just give up and not let other people see our own talents that just don't quite compare to theirs?
My advice on times like these would be "Don't let anyone Dull your SPARKLE!" Do the best you can and be proud of that. Don't worry about everyone else. You only need to please your Heavenly Father and yourself.
