teacher for over four years before having my daughter and leaving my career. I work from home the vast majority of the time and so I am looking for opportunities to participate in community events to make sure that I interact with other people, and I couldn’t help but think that I’d be a perfect fit for your science trips. Do give me a call if there are any places still available. Yours truly, Barbara Townshend

Some people believe that anyone can create art such as painting, poetry, music and so on. Others think that a person should have special abilities to create art. Discuss both views and give your opinion
In this world, every person is blessed with a special talent and can have it in form of art, sports, acting, teaching etc. Do you think people with special abilities can only create art or any simple person can develop the same expertise over time?
