There once was a boy
who tried to do good in the world,
but he had a chip on his shoulder.

Author's Comments

I appreciate those who commented on the original post. I don't know why, but I felt the need to re-post this completely. To justify the decision to myself, I guess.

...God, the way I prattle on you'd think I just killed a man and am vainly trying to tell myself that it's okay. I'm gonna be kicking myself tomorrow over all this drama. *grins*

Anyway... this is about ego, and how arrogance and the idea that the world owes you something can completely destroy a person and any good deeds they attempt to display. It's rather sad, and it happens ALL THE DAMN TIME. :(

Strange, but I took this as a Jesus Christ story, like the chip being wood and him supposedly a carpenter!

Interesting way of phrasing it. :nod:

I would think it would be more the other way around... us owing the world and such.

Anyway, I like the depth and where our thoughts go with this. :)

I read it in such a way like you're saying it bitterly and stabbing the idea at me.

I love it!

When I read about the evils of drinking, I quit reading.

Damaged people are dangerous, We know how to survive.

Aww... It's not about you, Bebe, but it is about someone we both know.

Well... not about, but inspired by. It's none of my usual suspects, either.
