Intro: And we were created in God's Image... short paragraph, outlet for my frustration and random thoughts

But that’s a lie isn’t it? Because that would imply god is not perfect. We cannot be perfect.

We are too weak, too vicious, too cruel, too needy, too petty, and too dishonourable.

We do not even know who we truly are even if we do we cannot face that truth.

I don’t want to hurt people. I really don’t, I love those around me, but they always get hurt. But if I don’t hit out...I am weak.

I can’t stand up for myself, I lose my backbone. I can’t go through life either bowing down to better persons trying to better myself, but I cannot live with the guilt of having hurt the people I love and hold closest.

Or is it that I don’t feel guilt? Most times... when I hurt, I feel nothing- only victory.

I feel some small bit of pride that I managed to do something and come out on top, a feeling that’s close to winning. When I feel like this I don’t want to feel guilty because that would mean I lose. I am not perfect. I am therefore not a child of God. I was not created in his image. God would forgive my sins, but I could not forgive myself. If I don’t know who I am, then I can’t. Simple.
