The Price of Greatness

Winston Churchill said, “The price of greatness is responsibility.”

I disagree. With or without responsibility, I will always be considered great and most holy. It’s not really my choice to be holy and great. I just am by default.

Now, if I was forced to choose either greatness or holiness, I think I would have to pick greatness.

This is of course a silly scenario. I would never have to choose between greatness and holiness unless I was at gunpoint.

I guess you’d have to imagine me backed up against a wall with some guy pointing a gun at my forehead and saying, “Choose holiness or greatness, your Holiness.”

I’d tell him to calm down, “I choose greatness, of course. Now take that glock away from my head before I take you down.”

Just because I'm holy, doesn't mean that I can't--as Tupac says--"Hit Em' Up."

I have a request, your Holiness:

Perhaps you can talk about the different smells and scents you use to fragrant yourself in one of your posts. It is a subject that holds great interest to many.

Do you go easy on the incense?
