Redefinition

Everyone has their own bias's and paradigms. I am no different.
Part of my paradigm is that I truly believe in the beauty and power of the human spirit. No matter how extensive the degradation of our world may be... I cannot give up my paradigm. How can I? I knowingly don't deserve the grace that is poured out on me... How can I judge others for their actions, when I know that they are simply struggling with the same cravings that I have for intimacy, destiny and meaning... they just don't know grace. They don't know the reality of grace that causes you to dream of a hope and a future.

One common courtesy I ask of you is that you do not judge a philosophy by its abuses... and I ask the same for myself. Please have grace with me if I do not act on my philosophy or deny someone its premise. We all have our ideals we are working towards, and the reality of that is we are all hypocrites in transition. So please have grace with me... I do truly believe in the beauty of the human spirit.
