| | Moods.... Hey I did some work related to music lit! It's a cool
feeling... and I wrote a reflection paper on Kathy Porch's concert. I'm going to Rebekah's house this weekend. And
I've been practicing and such. I need my singing book, I need love, I
need food, I need sleep, I need balance, I need friendship, me, me,
me....
Okay. Enough selfish pointless blather.
From C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity:
...the worst pleasures are purely spiritual: the pleasure of putting
other people in the wrong, of bossing and partronising and spoiling
sport, and back-biting, the pleasures of power, of hatred. For there
are two things inside me, competing with the human self which I must
try to become. They are the Animal self, and the Diabolical self. The
Diobolical self is the worse of the two. That is why a cold,
self-righteous prig who goes regularly to church may be far nearer to
hell than a prostitute. But, of course, it is better to be neither.
Hmm.... I don't think we're trying to become the human self. More like
becoming like Jesus. But I enjoyed the punch line so you should too.
