Everybody has a talent. 441 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: Some people can read some ship and actually put it 442 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: into existence, and some people some people can't can read 443 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: some ship, not really grasp it, I mean, and and 444 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: but then they can look at something and take that 445 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: and bring it into existence. I mean, everyone has a 446 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: certain power that they have, certain superpower they have.
