Outside Looking In

When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?

… I’ve witnessed triumphant ‘successes’ in a handful of people over the years. No one person comes to mind first. They & their many successes ran through my mind, with lightning speed, all at once, upon reading this question. For these reasons I cannot pin ‘one’ person down as ‘first’ with association with the word successful. My mind ain’t havin’ it & I won’t force it to.

When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

… when I stopped taking it, leaving them with a clear indication that there ‘ain’t no mo’ & kept it movin’. There’s nothing like the shock & horror a bully/manipulator/otherwise no good individual experiences when they realize you ain’t havin’ it. I can show you better than I can tell you.
