From: Pepper J. Baxter
On 2001/08/12 19:39, Pepper J. Baxter posted thus to the K-list: Read your digest #675. Guess I made a fool of myself again in minds of
others. It looks to me like both sides have an over abundance of ego. How do
I know for sure that either side is right? Anyway I'll go inside to find out
myself what is.
Still he can't be all bad. I know I'm not, and no one else is either. I don't
condone, nor discondone his "above us" attitude but some of the India
aristocrasy believe they are above what they think of as the common people.
It's just an ego belief.
What do I care if someone feels they are above me. They aren't. But I'm not
above them either.
Just thoughts, Pepper
