We Dull Our Lives By The Way

Suppose That Throughout Your Childhood You Were Good With Numbers. Other Kids Used To Copy Your Homework. You Figured Store Discounts Faster Than Your Parents. People Came To You For Help With Such Things. So You Took Accounting And Eventually Became A Tax Auditor For The Irs. What An Embarrassing Job, Right? You Feel You Should Be Writing Poetry Or Doing Aviation Mechanics Or Whatever. But Then You Realize That Tax Collecting Can Be A Calling Too.

That Is, It's Worse For The Child To Grow Up In A Vacuum Where "whatever You Do Is Alright, I'm Sure You'll Succeed." That Is A Statement Of Disinterest. It Says, "i Really Have No Fantasies For You At All."
