Resolved

I have been spending a lot of time reflecting on this resolution lately by Jonathan Edwards.
"8. Resolved, to act, in all respects, both speaking and doing, as if nobody had been so vile as I, and as if I had committed the same sins, or had the same infirmities or failings as others; and that I will let the knowledge of their failings promote nothing but shame in myself, and prove only an occasion of my confessing my own sins and misery to God. July 30"

I'm terrible at this, but it has been a good exercise.
