Do you consider yourself successful? Why?
Now is an excellent time to ask this question. I do, but not for the reasons I would have said a few years ago. I consider myself successful because I’m living the life I want, surrounded by the people I want in my life, and am able to express myself both professionally and creatively. What a gift. It reminds me of a scene in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes when Kathy Bates hits the car belonging to a set of women who have been taunting her about being younger and faster. She said, “Yeah, well, I have more insurance.”
