...so high and so mighty.

Self-esteem is founded on circumstances

take away or change the circumstances

for the worse and the esteem shall fail.

Happiness that is founded on fun

will fail because fun cannot be maintained

enjoyment is the hardest work with the least reward.

A change of environment disappoints

the get away from it all fails because when you arrive 

you discover that you are there and you always spoil things.

A pleasant and fulfilled attitude feels nice

but it only takes a glance from someone

or a word from another to ruin the moment.

There is a guarantee attached to life that if you build

a great and lofty tower to self-esteem and a name for yourself 

it will crack, it will shift and it will come crashing down.

So if you find yourself standing in the ruble covered in dust

if your dream has come crashing to the ground ask yourself a question. Why did you build yourself up to be so high and so mighty.
