The speaker was girl VINO nau he'''
been able to find herself. ,,,
She had wandered about from hooos
to hobby. from idlencss to work. from
deen thinking TO laughing Mt herself.
The one thing that stood out in her
mind was thot great fact. that she
really had two distinct personalities.
And that was really her one great
trouble. g., ,..,
Not the personalities, but her deep
consciousness Of them.
When one was in power she was
shy. sensitive. interpretive and moody I.
The other gave her self confidence. to
face the world unafrnid. laugh at her
self-madc troubles and hurts. and reach
out with clear. definite purpose.
Rut when she was self confident. she
knew there would come a time when
that moodiness would creep in and take
away her common sense; when the sen
sitiyeness would take possession OF hsr
understanding and send her away deeply
wounded by some unintended slight.
THIS was not dual personality, IL
i was lust n too distant, change OF
the entire character, which only the
girl herself realized.
And It NAV be that she gave It more
imnortance than il deserved.
For nearly all Of us have two oppos,,
ing wills: there is the strong one and
tho weak.
They seldom scnarate until we come
n a crisis in our lives. or a place where
We must make decision.
And then we must battle.
One side of our nature says. "Oh, go
on don't be 'fraid cat! Keep your
