aka... to those who crave limelight There seems to be this growing social stigma for individuals to need to acquire the attention of others and hit a homerun. This very desire can lead one to ruin. You see, if you want to stand out so much it will only be a matter of time before you do, one way or another.   And to stand out is to separate one's self, and eventually enough separation leads to... ...isolation... ...and then you're alone, amongst your own, and you will have put yourself there! The trick to winning within the tribe, is to become one of the tribe, and be one with the tribe. That's all Easy.  ;^)
