hypocrisy

One of my favorite lines is from Tombstone when Doc says my hypocrisy only goes so far tossing his badge at the feet of Wyatt Earp.

Why are we such hypocrites?

Why can we know a thing is right and tell anyone who will listen that they would be better off if they just did it this way when we as advice givers are unwilling to do it ourselves?

How many times have you held a girlfriend and told her she would be better off without him in her life, yet you are were unwilling to leave your own wounded relationship?

How many times have you told your buddy you wouldn't put up with such a controlling bitch only to go home and suck up to your own woman?

Is it some sort of warped nirvana?  Are we settling?  Do we think we're so invincible that we can survive the very same situations we tell others to run from?

I don't understand our twisted thought processes.

I choose to make a conscious effort to shed my hypocrisy, and I am finding it an extremely difficult thing to do.  I feel better for it, but for the life of me is it hard.

"Do as I say not as I do."  How many times did we hear this as children?  It is a lot harder to follow ones own advice with action than it would seem.

My path is a straighter course for this decision just a lot longer and straight up hill at a very steep incline.  My mantra "i do as i say, you do what you do"

I would still like to know the why of human duplicity though I doubt I'll ever find it.
