“I'm truly thankful that Life's blows knocked me off the Ivory Tower that so comfortably afforded me the luxury of looking down upon and judging others. And, despite my inner longings for respite, and peace...I wouldn't trade my troubles and woes for that old Ivory Tower for all the money in the world. For it is down here that I am GROUNDED. For down here I might not acquire much wisdom, but Gain so much more UNDERSTANDING. For it is down here that I am able to see your struggles and woes...and your Pain. From High in our Ivory Towers, we dwell on our own Greatness, while we look down on the lowly, casting judgment. It is only when we are brought to our knees, that we realize...we were never quite as far from the bottom ourselves, as we once thought.”
