AUTOBIOGRAPHY IN FIVE CHAPTERS
                                        Portia Nelson

         1) I walk down the street.
         There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
         I fall in.
         I am lost...
         I am hopeless.
         It isn't my fault.
         It takes forever to find a way out.

         2) I walk down the same street.
         There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
         I pretend I don't see it.
         I fall in again.
         I can't believe I'm in the same place.
         But it isn't my fault.
         It still takes a long time to get out.

         3) I walk down the same street.
         There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
         I see it is there.
         I still fall in...it's a habit
         My eyes are open; I know where I am;
         It is my fault.
         I get out immediately.

         4) I walk down the same street.
         There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
         I walk around it.

         5) I walk down another street.
