Core Few
by Jeffrey ParrenSometimes it feels like
there are only a few people
who are really rooting for you,
but as I look back
to the years of maturing
I realize the few people
my mother had around her.
That is not to say
there weren't plenty she worked with
or people she counted on
or trusted to a certain extent.
But when you really think about it
there are a core few people
who mean the most to each individual
whether they have 10 million fans
or 100.
They're the ones
who root for you
even if it means
they don't get
what they want.
I guess this was written
just to say
that I know who you are. 04/19/2011 Posted on 04/19/2011
