Some of us never stopped following the leader. Just
because we are constantly learning. I dont want to
be a leader because I dont want to be responsible
for others following me off a cliff (lol)
Your whole piece speaks of truth.
Brilliant as always my friend

Pure wisdom anyone can take to work with them. This would serve well posted on a bulletin board near the water cooler.
I demand you publish!

I wish to follow.
I could do all that is expected of
me, if you lead.
I am a follower, always was,
just waiting for somewhere to go.
A self styled follower, I like to work
without any hesitation, I heed no, mention,
just a fickle as a feather kind of love,
some face put upon my space where I could
someday become, just another to hear
the call. I would never turn myself away,
to ever turn away from opening up, my
heart is open wide. I do not wait in the door,
no my heart is made of gold.
So many constructs, the fire in my existence
is wild, untutored and raw.
And I am simple, inquisitive, and as imaginative,
as the bane of my own existence to be utilized.
Peace!

Hi Soft.
I can feel the attitude jumping off the screen and it makes me grin. So often in the everyone wins a trophy climate the good ones can get lost in the shuffle. There/'/s always an anxiety waiting to see who emerges. Splendid job. Always a pleasure |

These kind of leaders are few and far between, unfortunately.The problem being, when it comes to power and control, the scum as well as the cream rises.
A worthy homily to good character, though.
