Oh, The TEMPTATION

Temptation is a beast. How you deal with temptation has a huge impact on where you go or where you may stay in life. The war with temptation is like the fighting in Israel, it is never-ending, filled with many battles, and the only end in sight will spark your own personal apocalypse (death). There are few things that are certain, most people say they are paying taxes and dying, but I think temptation is more certain then taxes (you aint gotta pay em).

What is your biggest vice, or temptation? We all have them. Some of us cope with them better then others. You can be crippled by temptation and vices. Temptation can keep you in a jacked up relationship, get you in one, get you in trouble, leave you with regrets and might keep you from achieving your goals.

One thing is for sure, just when you’ve battled that temptation to the ground, hand tightly around its neck, lurking around the corner is his clone ready to jump on your back. And what is even worse, you know there is a factory just pushing them out somewhere, and one across town in construction to churn out the next tempting thing you haven’t contemplated yet. But oh that feeling you get when you don’t let your temptation get you its empowering.

Your ability to fight temptation is only as strong as your last failure. You can learn a lot about thwarting the urge to fall into old habits by understanding how you succumbed to them. One thing is for certain regardless of what you are tempted to do, it wouldn’t be classified as a temptation if it was good for you, so think twice then act.
