People are such mysterious creatures to observe. <br />When it's believed <br />Someone seen on a daily basis, <br />Has no worth they can detect. <br />That person becomes like them... <br />Driven by bad luck and circumstance. <br />They are comfortable with not taking chances. <br />And 'good luck' is what they express in doubt! <br />However... <br />When it is discovered someone seen on a daily basis, <br />Has, in fact... <br />Achieved accomplishments, <br />In front of them and not behind their backs! <br />They become quite startled that someone like that... <br />Could care less about the methods used, <br />Or who determines how success is measured to reflect <br />One's influence!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
