Well, looks like I'm officially on vacation now. Unless gosh-darnit, I have to go back tonight. Probably won't though; everyone's left town.

Is life always this hard? Has anyone seen a time when it was easy? Ho…
suppose I've been studying more Eastern Philosophy as of
late, which can make my point of view seem abstract; morality
from a Christian perspective has a tendency to be more heavy-
handed in it's views. After studying Taoism for awhile I've come to
the understanding that, esp. from a philosophical perspective, morality
or "rightness", and God are one in the same. This of course, from what you
intimated, a given in the understanding of God. But, if one's internal guidance
leads them on the path of "rightness", then they follow the word of God. In this
I would referr to the most quoted segment of the Gnostic texts; " lift a stone
and you will find me, split a piece of wood and I am there; the Kingdom of Heaven is
within you." This statement condones a path of righteousness that theoretically exists
within each one of us, if we seek it out. This is the transcendental excercise that has
become dormant in Christian thought, and somewhat dormant to social conscience. How
can this idea be proven? it can't. That's the excercise. To find the truth, which must begin in
the heart.
Yeah, end of thesis.( Went off the deep end on that one, eh?)
