The Best of Talent Should Never Lack for a Stage

   The best of talent should never lack for a stage. No, rather, the community should see the talent as one of its greatest resources and showcase the entertainers to visitors. When the airline drops off a load of passengers, greet them with invitations to step two feet to the right (so to speak) and hear one of the greatest violinists in the world.
   That would be Lindsey Stirling. She is actually from Arizona, I believe, but is part of the Utah culture, and it is here where much of her creative work is done. Not just her violin playing, but her videos are fantastic, viral sensations on the Internet.
   Let her have a stage near the airport. When the visitor touches down, make it easy and accessible to take in one of the quick such entertainment values such as Lindsey Stirling. Even make it so someone on a layover can catch a quick show.
   In turn, this would greatly benefit the careers of the entertainers. Regardless how good they are, if they are not given a place to showcase their talents, it is much for naught. They will go nowhere in life on talent alone if that talent is not placed before the public. Talent is no bigger than its stage. You might be the greatest in all the world, but if you are never given a chance to perform, who will know?
   What is the biblical expression? That we shouldn't hide our talents under a thimble, but place them on candlesticks? That is good direction for the entertainers, themselves, but it is also wise advice for the community. If the community wants to reap the benefits of its people's talents, it should seek for ways to place them on candlesticks.
