The Antidote To Hubris, To Overweening Pride,

And My Problem Was That I Always Tried To Go In Everyone's Way But My Own.

I Felt That Even When They Were Polite They Hardly Saw Me, That They Would Have Begged The Pardon Of Jack The Bear, Never Glancing His Way If The Bear Happened To Be Walking Along Minding His Business. It Was Confusing. I Did Not Know If It Was Desirable Or Undesirable.

What And How Much Had I Lost By Trying To Do Only What Was Expected Of Me Instead Of What I Myself Had Wished To Do?

Had The Price Of Looking Been Blindness, I Would Have Looked.

I Was Looking For Myself And Asking Everyone Except Myself Questions Which I, And Only I, Could Answer.
