My heart is fickle; how well I know this.
I want different things, irreconcilably opposed to one another.
I betray my conscience with nearly every breath and with most of my actions.
Day after day I choose the status quo over honesty and truth.
I cast blame rather than acknowledging my guilt.
I see simplistically rather than in full complexity, preferring the simple narrative to the truth.
I am apathetic, embittered, hard-hearted, unforgiving, lazy.
I serve myself first before looking to the needs of others.
I am the center of my world.
God, forgive me.
