712. Alone with the Master

```

When you are alone with your Master,

You are not happy.

You feel sad that nobody is there

To appreciate you,

To admire you,

To consider you exceptional.

When you are in a group with your Master,

You are not happy.

You feel sad that you have to share

Your Master's presence with others,

His smile with others.

You are one of the many,

And in no way exceptional.
