the opposite of what i want to do, that i do.

control is pride.
self loathing is arrogance.
order is power stealing.

I appreciate your brief post...
As of this Monday I started reading a book titled, "The Pridefu Soul's Guide to Humility" by Michael Fontenot; and then just happened to pop in on your blog after many months.
PRIDE is my current battle amongst many others.
