Authority

Daily writing prompt
On what subject(s) are you an authority?

I don’t think I am an authority on anything. There’s always more to learn about all subjects. I expect that once you think you have the answers, that’s when reality jumps up and bites you on the ass and proves you wrong.

Being an authority on a subject feels like a goal that is worth striving for, but realistically can never be achieved.

How’s that for deep thinking, eh? Did the idiot trick anyone into thinking he’s smart? No? Okay, I guess it was worth a shot.

  1. Lordy, why aren’t musicians allowed to state the obvious? You’re an authority on music…sheesh. I taught music for the military for 18 years. I had excellent students. When I asked them if they’re “good” at what they day, they annoyed me with their shy responses.
    If you’re good at something, it’s a lie to deny it.
    You’re an excellent guitarist and musician. An authority. Don’t be afraid to admit that. Otherwise, you’re “lying” – right? 😉
