short sighted

i thought about it a bit. i believe that the reason we do not always do what we know to be right and good and according to God's will is that 'our way' seems easier. And, indeed, it is easier, is it not? At first, I believe, it definitely is. But that is our problem. We are short sighted: always looking for the quick fix, the easy break, the easy way out. We do not look down the road, for if we did we would see that, in the long run, God's way is the easiest.

But we (at least I know I am) are short-sighted.
