I
recently was reminded when things get tough the tough get going and to add to
that, I found writing inspiration from Thelma and Louise. They are the characters from the 1991 movie
of the same namesake. Actresses Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis played
two women leaving their “somewhat” normal lives behind to hit the road for
adventure.
Things
go all Badass when their journey
turns into trouble, which is punctuated by their unexpected criminal activity.
Things literally go south as they find themselves running for the Mexican
border while outrunning the police.
When
this movie first came out every married, single, hard-working, fed-up, and
victimized woman cheered for its badass attitude. But, it was the ending that
made EVERYONE say, “That’s BADASS!”
So,
what does it mean to be a badass?
