Tragic Determinism

A guidance counselor who has made a fetish of security, or who has unwittingly surrendered his thinking to economic determinism, may steer a youth away from his dream of becoming a poet, an artist, a musician or any other of thousands of things, because it offers no security, it does not pay well, there are no vacancies, it has no “future”.  Among all the tragic consequences…, this suppression of personal self-expression through one’s life work is among the most poignant.
