My Autobiography in FIVE SHORT CHAPTERS

My Autobiography in
FIVE SHORT CHAPTERS

By Portia Nelson

I

I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost......I am helpless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

II

I walked down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in the same place
But, it isn't my fault !
It still takes a long time to get out

III

I walk down the same street
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
I see it there
I still fall in because it's a habit !
I know where I am
It is my fault !
I get out pretty quickly !


IV

I walk down the same street
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
I walk around it.

V

I walk down another street !
