BEARING THE EGO-TAG OF THE TIMES

BEARING THE EGO-TAG OF THE TIMES

Do I proclaim on the streets that I am a human being? I do not for I am myself convinced about it. Yet, I proclaim a hundred accomplishments to gain recognition from men, simply because I am not quite convinced that they are, indeed, accomplishments of real merit. Self-advertisement is common culture of the culturally fallen and has a terrible sense of inadequacy as its basis. The man of true merit is calm and collected, silent about his attainments, for he has truly realised either its worth or its sheer worthlessness amidst the immensity of Nature's bounties.
