Fictional account of life events of a poor dumb bastard trying to be in the world and in the Truth at the same time.

Escort (Yet Again)
Making arrangements to see a new provider, given that the previous one I liked so much is leaving the country. Already feeling regret for reaching out to her. Not just b/c it is so expensive, but also it is wrong by God's standards.
If I go through with this, it has to be the last time. (Famous last words.)
I suppose I really haven't figured out what I want from these escorts. I think it is the rush that comes from getting close to the "edge." I know, beyond reasonable doubt, that one day the edge is going to move and I'll be standing in thin air. Just ask Wile E. Coyote. (You'll have to watch for the sign since he never says anything.)
I make fun but this is deadly serious. I could mess up really badly here and get myself kicked out of the congregation. It would mal-affect my brother and my son. The two people closest to me. Oddly, they let my son back into the congregation just last week! How awful would that be if a week later I get kicked out.
But the freight train is on the tracks and headed in my direction. And all I keep doing is waving it on as I stand center tracks, as close as I possibly can. Maybe God can help. I'll try praying for that. But the thing is we have to act in harmony with our prayers, and I'm just not doing that. Do I really love the world so very much that I would sacrifice my life for just a few more miserable years in a dying system. I do imagine it would be very different to change if you are George Clooney or Jack Welch. The world has granted those people fame, status and power which will all go away when the new system comes.
What I get is a nice paycheck, by lower middle class standards, and that's about where the benefits stop. The rest of my life is a mess. And, as I have explained earlier, my consistent attempts to to get back into the church organization are met with ultimate failure in all cases.
So all this is up b/c I am trying to set up an appointment with an escort. She seems like she is really nice but one never really knows. It's a lot of money but I think I will go through with it. This is a clear example of my heart leading my head.
