Am going to stay away from lies -- even to justify or shape my poor behaviors in my life. Will try to create a level of truth that stings all sides of any issue -- because it betrays the changing views of what is right or wrong, what is salacious or good, what is real or unreal.
I am no genius -- that's for sure. I have made tremendous judgment errors, outrageous lapses in common sense, ridiculous hyperbolic statements. Mostly, and I can say this truthfully, I have done all these living-life things with a simple heart. I am not a schemer, not a planner of evil/good (only of choice); and I generally didn't care if I looked good after some decision or not. I think that I tried to remain true to principles that I espoused.
I don't know if an outside judge will render a verdict of success or failure on my choices, or no my actions. I can't care about that. What is done...is done...is done. So all I can do is continue to live the true and honest way -- and continue to accept what has gone before. My ethics are to see my actions in the light of truth and honesty -- and to acknowledge errors without condemning the man who made them.
