You've wandered so far, from the person you are

Just a line from my favorite song for today . . . The Frog Prince, Keane. They are playing on Monday, May 14 if anyone is interested.

Another favorite of mine today comes from "Ask a Lobbyist", and I quote . . . ''On the other hand, I don’t care if you’re Mormon or Baptist or Jewish or Muslim or whatever other religion, either. But, for some people, the only way to justify their own belief systems is to crap all over someone else’s and call them immoral and say they’re going to hell. Because, of course, there is Absolute Right and Absolute Wrong, and they are the former and everyone else is the latter. Luckily, I figure I’ll know a lot of legitimately cool people in hell, so maybe the whole hellfire and brimstone thing won't be so bad if I've got good company."

Very nice quote. I like it especially in the context of making an effort to live my values a little better and being a little less of a hypocrite on an hourly basis.

I'm lucky in the fact that my clients and friends share my same value system.
