New motto by Elvis

I've decided my new motto for dealing with church politics- and it is a quote from an Elvis Costello song Red Shoes... "Oh, I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused."

While I am sure I have probably misquoted him, or taken the line out of context, I still adopt it as my background noise to help me negotiate committee meetings and just general news headlines involving my current denominational affiliation. We can always choose our reaction, even when we can't control our circumstances.
