The Handbook

My heart truly goes out to all of the people who think they are better than me. I know that I'm not anything special... if they saw my house cleaning habits I know they'd agree. My clear open heart sees way beyond this... we're all here in this world without a handbook... at least I didn't get one.. if you got one that you can share with us we all would be grateful. Most of us, no matter how exalted, stumble around trying to find our place in this tumultuous world. Until you hand over this definitional text we're going to have to assume that you're no better than we are.
