This is Real Greatness.

1T takes real greatness to ig-
more ones own wounded pride"
This is a sentence to ponder over,
for after all it is a correct diagno-
sis of nearly all the heart feelings
lack of appreciation and little
sights of which we complain;
somebody has given our pride q
rap, and it is our self-love that
aches. To 4be great enough to
eliminate self from the occurrence
and view it minus the ego, is usu-
ally to rob it Of all significance;
it appears as trivial as it really is.
To be great enough to ignore
wounds to self-love is a broadness
of spirit worth striving after.
