chew on this

"People should not worry as much about what they do but rather about what they are. If they and their ways are good, then their deeds are radiant. If you are righteous, then what you do will also be righteous. We should not think that holiness is based on what we do but rather on what we are, for it is not our works which sanctify us but we who sanctify our works." - Meister Eckhart

i keep being accused of being liberal.
better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you are not. . .ya know? not that i'm hated. . .but it usually draws interesting comments from those around. . .

ahh. . . life in a red state.
