"It's hard to know when to respond to the seductiveness of the world and when to respond to its challenge. If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between the desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day." -- E. B. White

wow. i've been having serious problems with this very issue. be *in* the world, but not *of* the world. a little difficult, no? trying to find a healthy balance and stay sane in the meantime. well, sane is overrated, or perhaps too lofty a goal. i guess i'll just settle for being *me*. :-)
