my conscience stabs me

[rone]

The problem with being comfortable with your sins is that you keep committing them.  Then suddenly you cross a threshold and you're uncomfortable.  So is the frequency or the count the problem?  No, dummy, it's called a sin for a reason.  But it's a sin you've rationalized away long ago, so it must be reëxamined.

I must be sterner with myself.  I need to change.  I am at stake.
