this or that

A saint or a brute: that, ultimately, is the only choice, and everyone, sooner or later, consciously or unconsciously opts for one or the other" - Richard Baxter
sounds extreme, sounds emotional, sounds a bit irrational.
however thanks to logic it is completely rational.(Law of Excluded Middle; everything must either be or not be)
fuzzy spiritualists promoting self will continue till the end of time to promote moderation as not only the means but also the end. i can see moderation being a means in many areas of life, but never the end. so it is with roy, that these thoughts cause much turmoil. i often find myself between this brute and this saint - which ultimately means i am on the side of the brute. wearing their colors and fighting their wars my conscience atrophies.
i believe both christ and community calm the chaos caused by the poles represented here.

here i sit
at inman perk coffee, a great place if you are looking to get away from some bustle and settle in with some great coffee. all atlanta people should visit.

I like the Perk, but I think I heard they're moving around the corner or something.

(That's my profound comment for tonight.)
