I want to be bad




I often feel too good. Not my mood, but my general state of righteousness. If I have been doing everything I should for a some time, keeping my high behavior standards up and what not, I end up with a feeling spiritual anxiety. And there is something in me that wants to act out and do something to end the winning streak. It's like I can stand the pressure of being good. I want to do something stupid, something naughty. In some ways I feel like being a good boy is not really me. That I am faking it. Then I get this sometimes irresistable longing inside to do something bad. Not like hurting anyone or ripping someone off or anything serious, just something a little naughty. On another level, I feel that if I have been good for a long time that the devil must be working really hard to get me to mess up. I am not looking forward to a substantive work over, so I simply want to preempt him by screwing up all by myself. That way he might leave me alone for a while. I know this isn't true, but it is a funny thought.
