In the dream it was quite easy and natural, and I remember vaguely thinking that this is so easy, I should be able to do this in waking life from now on. Oh, well.
Anyhow, I realized today that while one is free -- perhaps even morally obligated in some way -- to continually strive to improve oneself throughout life, it may ultimately be necessary to accept *that one may never rid oneself of some traits that one would rather not have*.
But perhaps the very act of recognizing that you'd like to be something better than what you are, already makes you morally a little better than what you are?
Or does it make you worse, in that you know how you could/should be better, but have not made the necessary changes?
Oh, well.
*I'm not confessing that I'm living a secret other life as a vampire or a psycho killer (vamps and psychos don't WANT to change, see?).
