Straight Leg




My father who I consider to be a very wise man :D informed me on something that I never thought of before last night as we were sitting on the porch. As I was telling him how my first day back to school went and how I was pleased with those I choose to surround myself with this year, He Stopped me. He began to breakdown what and who I should and should not deal with. First he talked about the short leg person. I know I was thinking the same thing short leg??? Then he began to explain that a short leg person does not mean that that person literally has a short leg but instead a short leg person is a person that has no long term goals and is just going with the flow. They have no hope in life and have no support to want to do anything more. He told me that with the plans and goals that I have, there is no need for short leg conversation. Next, he explained the long leg individual. This is the individual that has a plan and knows where they want to go but at the same time they need a short leg to validate them. To make them feel more wanted, or make them feel as though they are going somewhere. This person is really not one that you want around because they bring along extra baggage and they are not able to stand on their own two feet. Lastly, may father spoke about the straight leg person. Now this person stuck out to me the most because I just thought that the straight leg and the long leg was the same person. The difference in the Straight leg is that instead of needing a short leg to validate them, they validate themselves; in what they do and who they are. They have a full plan of what they are going to do and how they will go about doing it. This is the that I feel that I am at times I have felt as though I needed a short leg to make me feel special or like I was doing something instead of actually doing something. They were my sidekick if you will. But for the past year (past 4 months mostly) I have been that Straight Leg individual, the one that knows who they are, what they are, and how much they want to bring to the table.
