Reading... What Am I? Pizza Dough, or Whole Wheat Bread?



From the Mass Readings for today:

Do you not know that a little yeast leavens all the dough?
Clear out the old yeast,
so that you may become a fresh batch of dough,
inasmuch as you are unleavened.
For our paschal lamb, Christ, has been sacrificed.
Therefore, let us celebrate the feast,
not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness,
but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.


If I take this analogy to heart, am I going to be a lazy ass, fool.... being akin to unleaven bread?  Will I simply keep smoking my pipe because it is easier than stopping?  Or will I aspire (rise) to a new way of being.  Am I tough enough?  Am I smart enough.

I do not know.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
