an inconvenient matter

so ....

shortly after i posted that oh-so-impassioned blog entry on love, i was presented with two excellent opportunities to put it into practice. one was convenient. the other was not. guess how i fared? exactly.

it was only after the inconvenient situation had come and gone that i realized i had completely missed it. i won't get into the details, but let's just say my behavior was a little less than loving. mind you, this was just moments after i finished high-fiving myself for being so very loving in the convenient situation.

ugh.

i am starting to wonder whether convenient love is really love at all. is it? what do you think? i'm not so sure. david said he would not offer the Lord that which cost him nothing. what have i gained if i only love when i feel like it?

i am so completely human, and i wish i were "better" at this thing called life.
