Can I be considered a good leader if those that follow ultimately fail in my absence?
Is the artist only as good as the canvas upon which she brings her creations to life?
I suspect not.
Therefore I am a failure as my legacy is covered in the blemishes of the fallen. Viaducts down, Rome sacked as what once was great is now nothing more than tales told by those who choose to live in the past.
But I am young.
Thus I return to the scene of my crime, hastily departed, left reeling, a drunk short a drink and a sympathetic ear, and I begin anew.
Perhaps this time I will impart some wisdom to allow those that can to light their own path, so that this time when I depart they will stand resolute and face the coming dark with the certainty of knowledge, of awakened minds.
Wish me luck.
I am good at my work. I am also an egotist it seems. Hahahah I only wish I could find a way to teach others so that they continue on into success when I leave. I have a new strategy so perhaps this time.
