On My Own

For understandable reasons ownership appears to be more impressive than honesty. But appearances can be deceiving. A statement of ownership reveals proud accomplishments and enviable possessions. Honesty, on the other hand, is usually shared by confession. While everyone including myself favours ownership, I think it is important to be conscious of the trappings of this quite natural impulse. It may afford a man unscrupulous drive in goal oriented behaviour, but at the inevitable expense of his soul. I have a feeling that God is more impressed by honesty. He already owns everything. I look upon my desire for ownership as a necessary evil, in order to make a respectable place for myself in this unenlightened environment. All the same, I ask my God to forgive me for it and to help me to not lose sight of my ultimate goal.
