A Common Unity

It seems as though there is so much disunity in the world today - far from being brave, it is a very cowardly world where couples divorce, churches split, and families disintegrate. The problem usually lies in a person's (mis)understanding of what he or she deserves. This could range anywhere from a stick of gum to a bigger house, but the real issue isn't really the deserved stuff, but the attitude that gives rise to the demand for it. I know enough to know that I know nothing, and I know enough to know that I deserve nothing. Everything I have has been given to me - if not by other people, then by the benevolent hand of God. I know better than to boast in the work that my fingertips render, for it is fleeting and always lackluster compared to my indebtedness.

End confession.
