On holding on to your own pen

"When writing the story of your life, don't let anyone else hold the pen."
Harley Davidson

I'm pretty sure no one else is going to get remotely close to my pen. I know we all learned to share in Kindergarten and all, but this is something I have no intention of ceding to anyone else.

The last couple of days have proven, to me, anyway, why this apparently simple mantra matters as much as it does. Your destiny belongs to you, and it makes no sense to let anyone else call the shots.

So don't.
