In my new perfect world...

In my new perfect world I could do what I wanted without regard for consequences and stop doing what I was told to do based on a principle handed down without debate and followed because someone had once said it was the right thing to do. Someone long dead and whose exact words no one remembered, but were enforced anyway. No questions asked. I was too afraid to ask. Asking was rebellion. Rebellion had bad consequences. Do what you’re told! I needed my own system that could tolerate the questions and serve my purposes, whatever they were at the time. A loftier dream. Life is very convenient when you create your own system. As long as the system keeps working.

It didn’t.
