33. The Weight of a Title: When It’s Taken Away.

---

What is a title?

To me, a title is an acknowledgment of an achievement, whether personal or public.

If you’ve worked hard and earned something, then you’ve earned the right to be addressed with the title that comes with it.

So who gives anyone the right to take that title away from you?

Well, I’ve had mine taken away, not by a judge or any official, but by my daughter, who’s currently under the influence of some really unhelpful people.

So, what can I do about it?

Absolutely nothing. I just need to accept that this is what it is, until it isn’t.
