Oh thou hypocrite...
My desire for some iota of personal nobility is challenged at every turn. Sometimes I don't want to fight anymore. Sometimes I want to fight as though my very life depends on it, and sometimes I think it might.
The me I want, and the me I am are seperated by uncrossable chasms of reality. I often know what I should do in order to become my better self, and find that making that decision though would ultimately lead me on a path of personal discovery, I can't do it. I don't have it. I like to believe that love is the answer. That every action based out of a premise of love will always lead to a truer...higher...better personal reality. However, I'm quickly learning that there is such thing as love, and selfish love. I wish I would have made that distinction years ago. I wish I was still a teeneager, and knew all the things I knew then. I wish I had the ability to meet the ideals, that my idealistic self desires. I don't. Plain and simple.
