Running away from myself / Dragging myself back again / Where's the joy / Why the temptation?

Are the seeds of self destruction within everyone? I'm beginning to think that they must be. How else are we to account for the myraid ways in which we are passive-agressive towards ourselves? We know what we should do...that's not the hard part despite all the debate on current cultural morality. That hard part is following through. I mean, how great would it be if you could trust in someone's word unequivocally (sp?).

I think it would be hard, but not impossible, to be a person like that. That hardest part, for me, would be saying no. To be someone whose word is bankable would require you to say no when you know that you're not going to be able to do what is being asked of you. A thought. I kind of want to be one of those people but I wonder if our society has made such morality/codes of honor obsolete in some ways...it's that much harder to be that person b/c the societal consequences for failure are minimal.

Just a thought.
