Inglorious

He said casually over his chocolate cake
"Do you see this glass?
Glory is resplendent beauty or magnificence,
a distinguished ornament or an object of pride.
An object attains glory, 
if it serves the purposes intended by its creator
anything contrary robs it of this glory
In our eyes
The cracks in this glass make it inglorious...
Because we are aware they were unintended
In your eyes
The cracks in you make you inglorious...
Because you assume they were unintended
Struggle as you might you are glorious
So leave well enough alone..."
