outstretched heroes the beggars' shadows. Shall we to the court? for, by my fay, I cannot reason. ROSENCRANTZ GUILDENSTERN We'll wait upon you. HAMLET No such matter: I will not sort you with the rest of my servants, for, to speak to you like an honest man, I am most dreadfully attended. But, in the beaten way of friendship, what make you at Elsinore? 68 ROSENCRANTZ To visit you, my lord; no other occasion.

But Biafra was defeated and Nigeria remained one, as a giant of Africa

As he stood there waiting for the governor of the province and other lords and ladies to arrive, he noticed that the palms of his hands were sweaty. The next day he called his disciples together and confessed he was not yet ready to be a true teacher. He explained to them that he still lacked the sameness of bearing before all human beings, whether beggar or king. He was still unable to look through social roles and conceptual identities and see the sameness of being in every human. He then left and became the pupil of another master. He returned to his former disciples eight years later, enlightened. HAPPINESS AS A ROLE VS. TRUE HAPPINESS “How are you?” “Just great. Couldn't be better.” True or false? In many cases, happiness is a role people play, and behind the smiling facade, there is a great deal of pain
