I really did n't want the label of a preacher 's kid , which I felt boxed me in and raised people 's expectations for me . I have my own way of explaining the modes , which I feel makes more sense than the way most other teachers and textbooks explain them , so even if you have tried to learn the modes before and gotten confused , stick with this lesson and you should have a good idea of what they are and how to use them . But on the other hand , there are lots of bean ones and fairly simple ones , which I feel I 'd be just as happy to eat today as when they were written , back in the l970s . That 's the shock that I felt about it , which I feel repeatedly with great literature .
