Being good or getting what you want

For many people, perhaps most people, it is more important to get what they want than it is to do good. And, as a part of that outlook, they will mock, snipe, and otherwise defend their self-centeredness.

I don't happen to be one of those people. And I take seriously the idea that everyone needs to behave better - in great part by embracing, honestly, their propensity to behave badly - and face up to the cynicism and work harder at being better.

So if you have more cynical input to offer me, be prepared that I am well aware that there are plenty of people who care more about themselves than about doing good.

I just don't listen to your sorry-ass excuses for what a shithead your being. Neither do I listen to my own, by way. At least not long.

Love,
Ben
