Last night I did a bit of self-observation and noticed that in many ways I am like an animal. I'm hopelessly true to my nature, and although armed with knowledge and conscious thought, it does little to serve me when I begin to feel. It's almost as if I'm at the mercy of myself, and though I wish I could just pull the emergency brake, I suppose the best I can do is keep one eye open and watch my step.

Hey, it's not so bad being an animal. And you're probably the last person I need to say this to, but being animalish is much better than riding through life with your emergency brake on. Take it from me.
But it's good to be reminded.
Thanks, Aaron.
