"I do not believe in keeping diaries and putting down every day what you feel, or what
you think you feel but never did feel. I fear it would become a mere formality, or an
exercise of imagination to most of us; for when I read very pious people’s diaries
they always seem to me to have had an eye to the people who would read them, and
to have put down both more and less than the truth; I am a little frightened at the
artificial style of experience which it must lead to." - Charles Haddon Spurgeon.
In this vain is the reason I keep this blog. Not to exercise my own conceit, rather highlight my own failures. To expose myself as noting more than I am. "If any man could see his own heart as it is by nature, he would be driven mad: the sight of our disease is not to be borne unless we also see the remedy"
