If my decisiveness causes divisiveness, then come what may because I've lived too much of my life in the gray.

Someone in Mind?

     This has been on a napkin for days, so it's not intended for any one person.  If anything, I have succumbed at times and is WHY taking it from me is plausible.  My spell is newly broken and could easily be reversed without consistent guard.  When we post, do we have someone in mind?  Even in our wholesome way, are we trying to impress a particular individual with our togetherness?  "Your favorite sin will do you in", even when it's almost imaginary with its harmlessness.  If all of us out here could read your thoughts, would they be pure or ...enticing?
     Admit to yourself when you've entered into a friendship that is the sacred ground of 2 other people or that of you and the person you love.  Do you crave a response from that new or old interest?  Are you gonna lie and say: no, she's fat; he's ugly?  Hollywood divorces prove that beauty binds nothing.  Friendships see far beyond the mortal.  And THAT is why they are dangerous to existing commitments.  This is the kinda thing we can't exactly put our finger on, sorta like soft porn, not knowing what it'll turn into until the deal is done and we're hooked. 
     Along the same line of thought, are any of us allowing ourselves to be a distraction, a consolation, a backup plan.  Funny how I left the question off the last sentence, as if it's a statement.  Do we fancy that there is a destiny, maybe a 20% chance that the current arrangements of our "friend" isn't going to change for the better?   Reality is something more like 80% against us, unless, of course, we've seduced someone with no moral boundaries. 
     Why do we use our persuasions - feminine wiles, as well as masculine pull; our talents; our intellect; our humor  ...to gain, to take, to consume, to romanticise?  Why do we think we're helping someone when we're drawing them away from a vow ...into our enchanted world?  Why aren't we using the genius that lies within to ...give?  That means setting presidence, BEFORE we meet someone.  That means keeping it open, counseling woman to woman, man to man.  Don't kid yourself.  You're human and fallible.  Your best intentions quickly go south, unchecked.  To whatever extent I've named you, I likely am worse.  If all this if freaking you out, know there are others who are soberly facing an undeniable dilemma.  We don't have much to call soley our own in this world; let trust be one of them.
