Solitarily Famous Let your eyes brighten as you stand out, distinguished, and enjoy the kind word spoken on your behalf or the gracious glance of gladness or the jubilant gesture of acknowledgement. And if you rashly realize it is but your own self that has taken a mindful fancy, vacant of viewers, affirm it thusly: with pleasure and humility and a breath of air. Value this very small segment of being, this emerging sense of distinction, for it is fleeting. Oblige the occasion of self and sight the simple details around you and hear the sounds around you and smell the scents around you. Mash it into memory. Momentarily exalt in the good act or thought. Momentarily exalt in the richness of favor and give it a soothing semblance and give it a sound and give it a fragrance. Mash it into memory. As keen time clicks, the renowned return, the admiration evaporates, and the self continues to move onward, alone, majestic and mundane, minute to moment.
