But what Heartform afflicts you, dear reader? All of us suffer, but not equally. Consider the most common maladies of the spirit:
Not everyone needs to be a hero, but all hearts need courage just as all stomachs need food. But what if you find yourself denied your measure? What if fear and doubt grips you all-too-easily? You must stand fast and face your fears resolutely. Do not flee, or take desperate, futile action. Present your best self to the world, and soon your heart shall believe in it also.

[A self-help volume, claiming to be able to help the timid and weak-spirited find their inner strength.]


Not everyone needs to be a hero, but all hearts need courage just as all stomachs need food. But what if you find yourself denied your measure? What if fear and doubt grips you all-too-easily? You must stand fast and face your fears resolutely. Do not flee, or take desperate, futile action. Present your best self to the world, and soon your heart shall believe in it also.
