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.
