Did you ever get an urge? by ~heavenlymayday:iconheavenlymayday:



Did you ever get an urge?
An uncontrollable prodding impossible want.

But you know better.
You know not to jump of that cliff.
You know not to drag that blade across your skin.
You know not to hit that person, or cut off all your hair.
You know that substance is harmful to your body and mind.

But for some odd reason the temptation exists.

What do you do then?
Do you run the other way? avoid all risk?
Abstain, deny any and all fun? Grow your hair a mile long?
Ignore the temptation?
Leave it alone and wait for it to vanish?

Or do you give in, JUST a little, in the hopes that the urge will be appeased?

Take risks, drive fast, scratch instead of gouge?
Swear and gossip?
Get a trim?
Drink a little and smoke a cigarette?

Is there a line somewhere that you won't cross?
Or did you cross several along the way.
A crossed line is worse than no line at all.

Did you ever wish for something so badly just because you know it's never going to happen?

Did you ever get an urge?

Random thread of thought.

People deal with temptation in very different ways. I find it interesting that the same exact temptation can lead different people to make completely opposite mistakes. Make one person risk their lives at every turn and the other refuse to live at all.

I hope I find a happy medium in there somewhere. Live life and be prudent. We all make mistakes though, the hard part is not making them over and over again.
