How many out there suffer from a lack of focus when it comes to completing the most mundane of tasks? I know I can't be alone. It's not for the lack of ideas, or time, or even talent. I know the latter to be true merely based on the fact that when I muster the gumption to start and complete a project the final product is not only pleasing to myself but even more so to others. This brings me to my next question; does public approval necessarily indicate quality of action or creation?

At What Point Do We Find?

2008-06-10T21:33:00.001-07:00

At what point does one cease aspiring towards something and begin being that something? At what point does the spirititual zealot lay down his God lasso in exchange for the loving embrace of reality? What is your definition of passive hubris?; or is that an oxymoron? Is the heart of a great sinner more vulnerable to God's loving embrace than that of the sanctimonious broker of truth? What is the fine line between destructive and constructive rebuke? Do you believe that all sanguine passions, if given enough time to grow, inevitably become their own sanguinary selfslayers? Do you believe in selfless individuality? Do you find that renting a property in excess of the sum of its mortgage, property taxes, and maintenance costs to be a breach of ethics?
