"He's not a little bit crazy?"

Desire denied makes the thrist run only deeper. The second chapter of "Mere Christianity" has finally tapped into what I've been trying to tap into for a long time. It's desire vs. duty. Because you something, sometiems "I want" is a good thing. I want to serve. I want to bless you. I want to love you. Duty can become such an empty gesture. But nine out of ten, desire is full and passionate and sure of what it wants. There's some people I feel I ought to love and the few that I actually want to. And the difference is all the difference.
