God is not interested in what you think you should be or feel. He is not interested in the narrative you construct for yourself, or that others construct for you.

All should be taught that the highest ambition is to be happy, and to add to the well-being of others; that place and power are not necessary to success; that the desire to acquire great wealth is a kind of insanity.
