I Can Not

When you say , 
"I can not change 
My bad habit because
 It is now chronic disease 
With no cure.' 
I see " stupidity " 

When you say ,
" I can not assist him ' her ' 
Because 
He ' she' will surpass  
me soon. 
I see," Ignorance " 

When you say ,
" I can't cooperate 
With other very world  intelligent people" 
I see, " some  primary emotions " 

When you say ,
"I can not travel in other countries " 
I see ," personal  reasons."
