Getting over myself

I take myself way too seriously.

I am constantly poking around my mind scrutinizing my every motive and every deed.

I justify myself constantly with thoughts like 'well if she would stop....well if he would do....if the weather were nicer....if the busses were on time...if work weren't so stressful...' and so on goes the victim thinking.

Even my prayers are self serving as I ask God to fix this or that thing in my life so that I won't have to work that self control muscle.

It would appear that the only thing in between me and contentment is that big comfy easy chair called self pity.
