He means more to me than I thought.
I was raised in an abusive home, and Star Trek TNG was one of my few escapes. I remember wanting to be like Captain Picard when I grew up. Confident, kind, direct, capable, and loving.
I don’t know if I’m there yet. But I’m trying.
I already miss you. So very much.
Would you mind sharing what he meant/means to you? I think reading your words will help.


His character as Picard is one of the clearest role models of leadership, something I want to aspire to.
My family calls TNG Competency Porn the best people doing their best and looking damn good doing it.
I love this! Stealing it.
When I’ve had jobs managing people in the past, I try to think of what Picard would do.
Username checks out 😄

Totally. When I read the Aubrey/Maturin series I saw a lot of parallels between Picard’s leadership style.
