So a kind of egoism takes hold of us that is not at all reprehensible and that in no way diminishes our pleasure (joy, happiness, contentment) in being with the baby. It is a kind of egoism we never knew before. As if we could only be and feel like a part of creation when we give ourselves over to that. To be an active part of creation – this is not thinkable (thought immediately turns it into a story mixed of morality, responsibility, and culture.) But we are that and are very surprised ourselves at this wondrous insight that has accrued to us only now with the uninhibited discovery of our egoism. (And our baby? Leaning on my thighs, pudgy-cheeked with a double chin that renders the neck invisible, the gaze turned sideways: a nonplused official.)
