Ciao!
Since I was a kid I kept my thought to myself.
I'm not a talker but I'm a patient listener.
I never wanted to be a leader because I don't want the responsibility.
I prefer to be a follower but before I do follow
A. I listen attentively
B. I reason with my head.
C. and then I choose.

That’s how you lead yourself.

Since I cannot and do not dance, I guess I am lost in the fog of standing on the side and watching the crowd go dancing by. "Woe is me,", said the guy with two left feet.

They also serve those who but sit and wait.
Comment from Wendy G
I totally agree. If one has not learned to follow, one cannot learn to lead - and the role of a good and wise leader is to encourage people to follow whole-heartedly, working together as a team.

Sheep only lead each other astray.
Comment from jim vecchio
They say still waters run deep, but water that stays in one place and goes nowhere will become polluted. Same with humans. If I stayed in one place and did nothing except maybe play bingo, I would be a waste of life.

Well, I'm hoping that the one who can't do either - follow guidelines and lead, would be removed from heading up the Department of Defense. But alas, he is just one of the many!

The whole crowd will lie and deflect until the next election, when somehow the results will be another historic win for the Republican Party. The latest polls say Trump's actions are approved by 47% of the nation. Either the polls are rigged (hope) or the country is changed to no good end.

Sigh. But remember this is not our Real Home. Keep your shield of Faith up and shut off that news! 💖🙏
Comment from patcelaw
It is so true that when we are able to follow, we will have the ability to become leader leaders, but you can't be a leader until you know how to follow. I very much appreciate your poem and it says a lot.

You can be in the middle to see if where folks are going is better than where they had been.
Comment from Karen Cherry
I can do both, just ask the guys I danced with. If they weren't very good, I swapped places and led. I was not shy. What you said is very true. Have a good week. Karen
