general philosophy
A while back I came to the realization that I wasn't a terrible person, partly because that's a little too simplistic a description for the world.
Months later, after all Sunday's thinking about my issues, and with intestinal upset, I'm hitting the same realization from a different angle; that "terrible" has just no nuance. No room for "bad," "really minor mistake," "ongoing issue to work on," or "this negative self judgment is at least half sheer force of habit."
