What You Aren’t
Your debts don’t mean anything more than that you owe some people some money. No one has drawn up articles of condemnation against you. You won’t be dragged through the streets in a dunce hat and pelted with garbage. Your picture hasn’t been tacked up in post offices. You’re not wandering weary, friendless, naked, and hungry from village to village.
