Insofar

I only gain my life insofar as I lose it.

I am only exalted insofar as I am humbled.

I am only victorious insofar as I am surrendered.

I am only strong insofar as I grasp my weakness.

I am only healthy insofar as I am broken.

And I can only lose my life... I can only be humbled, surrendered, weak and broken, and therefore exalted, victorious, strong and healthy... insofar as I stop starting all my sentences with "I".
