These days, I fail again and again it seems. I am having pounded into my heart: it’s not enough! It’s not enough to a) try to always want to do the right thing and b) try to always want to do the considerate thing for those around me.
It’s not enough.
I still fail; I still make mistakes; I still hurt people; people still misunderstand me; people still disappoint me; people still hurt me.
But I’m not gonna do no blame-shifting, no shoving my problems off of me because I think I’m blameless, well-intentioned and all. No. In what can only be a supernatural way, I’m trying to quietly accept my moral agency.
So I told God,
“I feel my humanity. And it is guilty.
…… I am guilty.”
