My personal saying is, "The best revenge is excellence!" This belief has served me well. I have never entered any door where I have felt inferior. When a Jewish buddy of mine recently called me Uppity (joking of course), I replied that I was above Uppity!! We both laughed. I owe my high self-esteem to wonderful parents that made me believe that I could do and be anything if I CHOSE to do it. I still believe that I can still make a difference in this society, even in Trumpland.
