Lingering Resentments
I was presented with a choice: I could obey or I could go to hell.
It seems like a no-brainer, but to understand the nature of my dilemma, you'll need some background. As a graduate student, I lived next to a nursery. The enclosure had been shoddily built and one day I awoke to a pack of feral babies surrounding my bed. It was only with tremendous bravery that I was able to make it out of that ordeal alive.
So you'll commiserate when I say that taking orders from Baby Jesus made the prospect of heaven less than inviting.
