Your position in the Maslow pyramid (speaking metaphorically) is very different from that of those poor Russians. Changing from a "not very good person" to "a better one" is not the same as changing your entire life and marital status. You and I have to remember that we have had the *luxury* of self–analysis. Yes, it is a luxury that one can afford when one is not too busy dealing with a booze hound husband and absence of hot water in the shower.
