I don't care about how much my theology may change in my lifetime, for the one thing that I shall forever hold dear is that I wish to always treat my neighbors as I would like them to treat me. I don't know when I may let that get the best of me, but I try to live it the best I can. I always want to be treated with dignity and respect and love and friendliness, and many times I feel like I let people trample me just for its own sake. I know that I have been very selfish growing up to the point where now I feel completely guilty when I have something for myself. I am deeply indebted in utter gratitude to everybody in my life. I wish to always give them what they deserve and I hope that they don't take it as a request on my behalf for another of their services. Today, though, I am at a point where I have let somebody crush me, and I let him have that same control still just because I am treating him with the exact same respect with which I have always treated him. I am mentally exhausted, for I have been walking over eggshells, but that is what anybody gets from me. I let myself cope with my feelings in private whilst others may take advantage of what I attempt to give as a result of my continued belief in the universal golden rule.
