The failure of existence?

Having a talent is not enough: one also requires your permission for it-right my friends?
-Friedrich Nietzsche

So, you know how you wish that you wrote something that someone else wrote? For example, if I could be an awesome sci-fi or fantasy author, there would be TONS of things that I wish that I had thought of. Sometimes I imagine these little short stories of dystopias in my head, creating characters that will never get out on paper or on megabyte. I created a really stupid comic book character once, but nothing ever happens. Maybe I'm lazy, maybe I have no self-confidence, or maybe I'm just a failure with no good ideas that would actually fly. This isn't a blog for my own self-pity, because I know that anyone who reads this probably has something that they feel very similarly about. So, it's not much of a post, but here's to you! All of you who sometimes feel like you're not living up to the potential you want, or to those of you who let opportunities pass, or aren't doing the thing you most want to do in your life. Cheers.
