RE: The Problem with Humility (Contest)

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

As a child Pat felt 1. special.
One day while 2. talking about how special she is in her new school 3. Pat was 4. shocked to find that they did not think she was the main peanut in the packet.

This 5. realisation that took far too long and with no help from her doting parents shook Pat to the very core and 6. she decided to push them away maintaining her snobbish attitude, until the new schools Dumb Diana shivved her and everyone rejoiced.

Was there a lesson to be learned? Could any good come of this? Pat sat in quiet meditation and thought 7. as she was laying in the hospital bed, since Dumb Diana did not get anything major and she was still alive, now dreading having to go back to school.

Googling how to make a shiv she also thought of what made the kids from her old school special to her, apart from all the ass kissing, she also realised that Dumb Diana was not so dumb for hating her.

Maybe instead of a shiv she could make things less about herself and be more present for others and their accomplishments, but no ass kissing, she would not want to shiv them down the line.
