Likewise what God did in creation, he created each and every one of us in a certain unique way with some special traits and qualities to perform some specific functions in some special and unique ways. This justifies the reason why some area artistes or musicians that is good in one area but when asked to perform any other type of music, they find it very difficult and atimes impossible to do that. This is reason why someone that is good in one area of sports cannot also perform the same way in another area of sports.

No matter how good you, there are places where you can never fit in. No matter how bad you are...
