It starts Oh Lord, It\u2019s hard to be humble, when you\u2019re perfect in every way. <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/dg8NPPEms54\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/dg8NPPEms54<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People always looked up to Fred. Ask anyone. Well, actually, the person you could ask about that would be Fred. Fred was the kind of person that only thought about himself. Everyone else that didn\u2019t agree with him was wrong.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was in his comfort zone when he was followed by people who fawned upon him. I\u2019m sure you know people like that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laughter was his out. He would laugh it off and belittle that person or idea when he couldn&#8217;t think of anything positive to say. Thinking positive of others was not his strong point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some people say that Fred graduated from the University of Ineptitude with honors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fred\u2019s strength was in numbers. The more he could convince people to follow him, the more powerful he became.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything that Fred attempted to do, according to him, he was the best at.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There were those who knew Fred and were confused about why he was so popular. On the other hand, even though they knew in their hearts that he was wrong, most of the time, they followed his teachings and supported him anyway, hoping that someday it would rub off on them and they would be as loved as it seemed the people around Fred were with him.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fred had high aspirations and there came a time when things weren\u2019t going so well for him. His goal was to be a giant. Which is why he went on that sailing cruise to parts unknown. He figured he could find a place inhabited by those who would bow to his every whim.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last I heard, he found such a place. I never would have guessed that the fictional Island of Lilliput was real.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The following writing piece is fictional.
