"Difficult questions to ask when you do what you do.
Why am i doing this really?
If someone in my circumstances came to me, what would i tell them?
In light of my past experiences and my future hopes and dreams, what is the wise thing for me to do?"

I heard these and thought they seemed kind of obvious, so they're easy to ignore. When I really think about it... they are difficult questions. Not difficult to answer, but difficult because the answers can be surprising. Admitting to one's self the reasons for action can be completely selfish or cruel or there could be no real reason other than "because i want to." I wonder if we all feel we need to be politically correct when we do things, so we make up "reasons" instead of admitting the real one?
