Conscience or Convenience

We each have a conscience. Whether we listen to it or abide by it is another story. But we each have a conscience. The issue with our conscience is what will we do with it? The immediate answer might be that we will listen to it. But do we really do that? What if our conscience says "no" to the things that we want to say "yes" to? What if it takes us in an entirely different direction than the direction that we would like to go? What if is says that our dreams will be our downfall despite the fact that we are deeply passionate about those dreams? What if it calls us to something that we feel is either horribly frightening or terribly inconvenient? What if?
Too often we follow our conscience if the following is easy or if it's in keeping with our agendas. It's easy to follow our conscience when it lines up with everything that we want. But when it doesn't we often edit it, tweak it, put a hefty spin on it, or ignore it altogether. And it is in making decisions like these that we end up in places that we never wanted to be. It is the ignoring of our conscience that leads to the destruction of our lives. Our conscience is not this shrill and nagging voice. Rather, it is one of our most reliable compasses that keeps us out of the most terrible of places.
