Stithtiorn as a prig
on ice •
Odds n' ends
by Elaine Townshend
"Stubborn as a pig on ice" is a phrase I've
•••• -- heard-a fe,w times. My Mother has even used
it to describe me, although I can't imagine
why.
What does it mean? Well, I conjure up a
picture of a not-too-bright pig floundering on
a sheet of ice. He seems to think he'll get to
the other side, even though every step he takes
forward inalteS'him slip three steps backward.
A-farmer comes along to help; but the pig
'just squeals louder, struggles harder and
heads in the opposite direction to which the
farmer wants him to go. My little drama ends
with the pig and the farmer exhausted and
sprawled on the same spot where they began.
The dictionary's definition 'of stubborn
seems to uphold my fantasy: stubborn meting
inflexible in opinion or intention, unreason-
ably obstinate, intractable and not easily
handled, bent or overcome. 'Only in the final
definition does the wor d gain any favour:
stpbbornness, is characterized by perse-
verance and persistence. ,
The last two qualities are ones, we usually
associate with determination, for we tend to
attach a negative connotation to the word
"stubborn" while giving "determination" a
positive, sense. The dictionary says determin-
ation is the quality of being earnest and
decided; it is thinness. A determined' person
is resolute and unflinching.
—1--notice-obstinate IS-a synonym used for
both words. Is. there really much difference
between stubbornness and determintiOn?
When we think of deterMined people, we
remember Helen Keller, who overcame
deafness and blindness to communicate with
the world,.and we remember her determined
young teacher. We also think of the pioneers
who were determined to make new lives for
•themselves in a rugged wilderness. We think,
too; of the people who 16st their businesses,
homes and almost everything they own in
the Depression, but instead of giving up, they
started all over again. .
These people set goals for themselves that
must have, at times,' seemed out .of reach. But
they persevered, and they succeeded because
they were determined. 'Isn't it possible that
they were a little stubborn, too?
I remember a story our minister told a few
- weeks ago. Of course, I listen to more than his
jokes, but this one, seems, appropriate for a
discussion of stubbornness and determin-
ation. He was talking about the fact that some
people let nothing stand in -their. way.
A family was forced to evacuate their home --
because of a flood. They .got into their canoe
an rowed around and around the house. After
awhile, the father decided to go back,in, just
to make sure everything was alright. He was,
gone for a long time, and the family began' o
worry. Then they noticed his hat on the
surface of the water; it was going back and
forth, back -and forth, -in a straight 'line.
"It's strange for Dad's hat to be going back,
and forth like that," one of the children said.
"I wonder what he's doing."
The mother thought for a • minute and then
said."Well, he did say this morning he was
going to cut •the grass today come hell or high
water."
1-still linven't decided whether that mart was
.-stubbaripordeterrnined, but I guess- h-d--got-hi
grass cut, anyway. •
Perhaps • the basic difference between a
stubborn person and.a deterritined person is
• that the stubborn one plu ahead with
tunnel-visipti, seeing only h' I in front of
him. When 'he TgThilddenly ronted by, a
• brick wall, he might bang his It 'ad against it
hopiag_to...break it down.
• When the. determined. person .encounters
the brick. wall, he studies the s'tuatioi
awhile; then he looks for a .ladder, if he •
" can't find a ladder, he builds one.
