She was a fighter, always believed she wanted to be an actor.
She ate only two meals a day, worked even at night.

She auditioned every weekend, for 4 years without any hope of light.

Finally when she did get a role, that she very much deserved based on her sheer talent.

Bloody society mocked her down saying "She just got LUCKY".

    To hell with such society (pardon for my language). to be honest i never cares about the society .. despite being told many times the opposite .. for me society always is set of people that Accept A person Who loves To do - What he/she want to do [ results in creation of one's Identity ]. rather than the one who goes around pleasing others .. nice post :)

    People can be so mean, and jealousy is wicked. Great take on the prompt!

    You hear that a lot from people, 'You got lucky' and I hate that too.

    Oh, this is witty. Yes, "luck" very rarely has anything to do with success.

    Those who had mocked your character did so out of pure jealousy. But there's no pride for proclaiming one's own achievements. I liked reading this.

    Would love to read your comment on my endeavor.

    society can at most times be cruel for they do not know what goes into the making of things, they just know what they see at the end.

    Ppl with amazing capability to ignore back-biting and leg-pulling are those who eventually give the word "MIRACLE"... to society to be used for themselves.
