November 13, 2004 - Self-serving?
I sometimes worry that my desire to be clergy is self-serving. I'm not sure
if this is an effect of my fear of becoming an ego-maniacal bastard (a fear I've
had for years) or if it's because I think it's right to think about these
things.
I'm extremely self-reflective. I think that's why I can laugh so much at myself.
I generally know what my motives are, and I rarely do anything without
considering the consequences.
Perhaps I don't look hard enough at the consequences of my actions. I often
don't really care why I'm doing something. Certain things slip through my ethics
screen sometimes. Heck, on certain days, I think that "screen" is more
like a sieve. It just lets everything through.
This is something I'm working on.
