My Little Confession

I need to confess something, something what i deemed trivial but when i am asked, i felt embarrassed actually.

As a driver, tearing coupons is part and parcel of life everyday, very often for the convenience, i will just fold the coupons instead of tearing it, the act by itself is fine of course, just that many times i find myself reusing them... bad huh? not that i think too much of it really, to me it was me acting on mine little intelligence to 'out-law' the rules and save a few dollars..

Until last night, a question was popped to me " are u cheating?" Uh oh... not good, i was caught unprepared by it, what was always trivial and unimportant to me, got me red faced... matter of fact is it is an act of cheating isn't it? so much of my righteousness huh!?! Argh... embarrassed as i was, it set me thinking... a man's character should be consistent in ALL area of his life, however trivial or unimportant it might be.. in this case i have failed i think. But i am thankful, it is a timely reminder, it not too late to amend and stop the 'little devil' in me from committing 'crimes' like that... Phew ...

The first good change in 2010, true that a few dozen more dollars to add to the government's revenue, but i am the ultimate winner am i not? :)
