The Good Fight

hedonist02I'd like to discuss the progress of my new war on Hedonism. I'm not sure it is going very well for me. The battle plan was simple: wean myself off of the diversions that serve no function other than "pleasurable distractions." In concert with this tactic, I had planned on devoting more time to building a dedicated daily routine of dutiful living. (that's a lot of D-words)

In this I have failed. My inner Hedonist has hijacked the motivation centers of my brain. These pleasurable distractions are too alluring. The Spear of Consequences lies broken at my feet. I have lost the Gilded Helm of Charitable Living. Why am I so irresponsible? Why am I lazy? God, help me. I want to make beautiful things again.
