‘Success is a finished book, a stack of pages each of which is filled with words. If you reach that point, you have won a victory over yourself no less impressive than sailing single-handed around the world’
~Tom Clancy
Sometimes success lies within ourselves. It can be something as small as getting your ‘to do’ list done. Trust me, that is a major accomplishement in my life.
Or it can be your first submission of a poem that is accepted and published. I wrote this poem years ago while going through a relationship that wasn’t working out at the time. It is not poet laureate material, but it was written from the heart and I will remember it always as the first time I got brave enough to submit something for possible publication.
