The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn March 16, 2000 Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  I have called my material surroundings a stage set. In this I can act. And you may well say "act". For what I call "myself" (for all practical, everyday purposes) is also a dramatic construction; memories, glimpses in the shavinglass, and snatches of the very fallible activity called "introspection", are the principal ingredients. Normally I call this construction "me"' and the stage set "the real world". Now the moment of prayer is for me -- or involves for me as its condition -- the awareness, the reawakened awareness, that this "real world" and "real self" are very far from being rock-bottom realities. I cannot, in the flesh, leave the stage, either to go behind the scenes or to take my seat in the pit; but I can remember that these regions exist. And I also remember that my apparent self -- this clown or hero or super -- under his grease-paint is a real person with an off-stage life. The dramatic person could not tread the stage unless he concealed a real person: unless the real and unknown I existed, I would not even make mistakes about the imagined me. And in prayer this real I struggles to speak, for once, from his real being, and to address, for once, not the other actors, but -- what shall I call Him? The Author, for He invented us all? The Producer, for He controls all? Or the Audience, for He watches, and will judge, the performance?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3799]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65650]]></link><description><![CDATA[War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Push on,--keep moving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50690]]></link><description><![CDATA[Push on,--keep moving.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50690</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be not affronted at a joke.
