Humans.

We are a funny animal.

We know what we should do. What we should eat, drink. What we should stay away from. And it always seems that we run, pell mell right to that which is the worst for us.

And then struggle with it. And, yet again, make that internal deal with ourselves that we will move forward from here. From right now.

Until our weakness rears its head yet once again.

I have a friend who tells me that human nature is what it is. That we have to put up with it until we die and are sorted out by our Higher Power. Well, maybe that is an oversimplification.

Regardless, I don’t believe that. I do believe that we all can change. That we are all capable of intelligent discourse. That given the chance to live well, and to not….we all want to live well.

Which leads me back to doing what you know is right for you.

Not the you that wants….but the you that knows what you need. Want, and need.

The constant struggle between the two.

But no one heard at all, not even the chair….
