I am not a Big Man

Sally and I are currently watching a Netflix series called “A Man in Full” starring Jeff Daniels. It is about a man that I really don’t like. As a matter of fact there doesn’t seem to be many characters in this series that I can say that I would care to even meet. Sally is surprised that I am sticking it out. I suppose it is because I respect Jeff Daniels as a person as well as an actor.

This man is a “Big Man”. And I really don’t care for the “Big Men” that I have met in my life. I don’t suppose that the Big Men in my life would amount to much in comparison to Charlie Croker, Jeff Daniel’s character. But it seems that the self absorption and the willingness to dominate and control those who have the misfortune to associate with these men tracks down the totem pole to my level of misfortune.

Luckily, I escaped them after 14 years and got even as I made my exit. I prefer being unimportant. Nowadays, I just walk away from all the big men that I happen to meet.
