How to be a Good Egg
Starring Humpty Dumpty
Humans have been using song and rhyme to pass down important lessons to their eggs for all of recorded history. Teaching a child to grow up and be a good person is a lofty goal that is made much easier by solving Humpty Dumpty's riddle:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again
Q: What is a fall from greatness that can't be put back together again by all the powerful forces on the outside?
A: Pride that takes offense*
*My use of "pride here in terms of vice vs Virtue is not intended to disrespect, invalidate, or cause offense concerning other definitions. Pride has many definitions. I use the following definitions (as I have discovered them through Humpty Dumpty) because I find them to be true. By understanding and applying them (while also acknowledging that other perspectives exist), this site will teach you how to use the riddle to identify enemies and raise a happy, healthy, ethical egg.
The difference between a child and an adult,
between mental illness and mental health,
and between evil and good...
is the difference between pride and Humility:
Accountability.
Piece be you. (sic)
