Humdrum isnt where you live; its what you are. Perhaps you are one of those whose lives are bound by neighbourly interests. Imaginatively, you never seek what lies under a gorgeous sunset; you are never stirred by any longing to investigate the ends of rainbows. You are more concerned by what your neighbour does every day than by what he might do if he were suddenly spun, whirled, jolted out of his poky orbit. The blank door of an empty house never intrigues you; you enter blind alleys without thrilling in the least; you hear a cry in the night and impute it to some marauding tom. Lord, what a life! And yet every move you make is governed by Chancethe Blind Madonna of the Pagan, as that great adventurer, Stevenson, called it. You never stop to consider that it is only by chance that you leave home and arrive at the office alivemillions and millions of youpoor old stick-in-the-muds! 4 Because this or that hasnt happened to you, you cant be made to believe that it might have happened to someone else. Whats a wood fire to you but a shin warmer And how you hate to walk alone! So sheer offthis is not for you.
