T - Minus 204 Days
At the arcade, we got a Coke and some M&Ms to share. Then to impress Bonnie I told her, "I want to be President someday."
She made a face of disgust and said, "What is wrong with you?"
I expected a laugh or some teasing comment, but we never spoke again after that day.
It wasn't that she thought that I couldn't be the President of the United States. It was that I was too flawed.
I learned on that day that I didn't want the extra ridicule of politics and that I would likely lash out un-presidentially ;)
If I worked harder in the gym and the classroom, then maybe I would be good enough.
Soon I realized that most people settle for good enough and were shocked when you dared attempt to be great.
