My friend is a superwoman. No really she totally is. See my friend takes on all sorts of project, hobbies and disciplines. Not only does she take them on she excels at them!
A few years back she learned how to knit little squares in a workshop. And since then she has made countless beautiful items out of complicated patterns. Scarves,
bennies, even a homemade stocking that she gave to my mother, which is now proudly displayed every Christmas.
She also worked for many years in construction for Habitat for Humanity. She spent her days not only working with a bunch of rough and tumble men in construction, but she was often in a leadership position on site. Imagine a young women taking charge of a house build! It kind of blows my mind.
It’s amazing to me how eager she is to learn. It seems like every time I talk to her she has some now passion that she is pursuing full throttle. She studies plants, economics, politics… you name it. I am constantly learning something new from her.
I recently was able to visit her, and I was able to reap the benefit of her newest obsession. She has decided that she has a passion for the culinary arts. She cooked and baked things for me that where ridiculously delectable.
Now many people are into lots of stuff, but only a superwoman can conquer everything she touches. Not only that, but she is so humble about it all. She doesn't even realize that she is super.
But I have decided that when I grow up (presuming I ever grow up) I want to be like her!
