Disappointment

DISAPPOINTMENT:

1. The cradle of the ideal.
2. The skeleton of Purpose and the skull and crossbones of Desire.
3. A feeling in regard to the past that comes to every one on the Thirty-first of each December.
4. The final issue of any act begun yesterday, today or tomorrow.
5. The original road to Damascus and Horeb.
6. An alluvium deposited by the waves of Time in the human soul, and which becomes the basis of psychological Mont Blancs.
