Jesters

Jester:

The Daily Discipline Over The Temptation Of The Flesh That Hinders Acceleration

Every man has his own personal Jester

The jester is a master liar. His 5 lies are

1. You Are The Boss Of Me – “you can stop me whenever you want”
2. You Are What You Do – the stumbling self is the real you
3. You Are (relatively) Not That Bad A Guy – is it really that bad?”
4. The Jester And Virtue Can Coexist – “yeah but”
5. You Can’t Live, If Living Is Without Me – “there is no hope”

But, Preparedness keeps the Jester at bay

“While I can never out-paddle my Jester, the faster my boat is Accelerating through the water the harder it is for him to capsize it.”
