LINGERING QUESTIONS
There are numerous
questions that bug
and challenge me.
Sometimes I think
I have the answers.
QUESTION LIKE:
If it's wrong why
do I want it?
If it is wrong why do
I sometimes dream
about it?
If it's wrong why
do those who forbid it
practice it in secret?
If it's wrong who has
the authority to say it is?
If it's wrong why does
it awaken deep desires?
If it is wrong why doesn't
the desire leave my mind?
Meet me at the Kissing
Place and we'll honestly
answer and practice our
new freedom.
OKAY?

So true. The challenging question is "How do you get two parties to even dare to talk about ?" Thanks, as always, for he very spot on remark. LOL, oral

... Usually over coffee & doughnuts I would suggest. Why does it have to be so complicated? It's only our minds that put these barriers up remember. ;-)

Yes, as the philosopher said, "As I think, I am." Yes, we do things in our mind but for some reason dare not in reality. Why? xo

I’ve often wondered many of the same things…
Why do I always want what I know is absolutely wrong for me? Why do I crave danger? Why does the dark angel look more appealing than the light angel?
And then…
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if someone felt the same? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to share all my secrets with someone who wouldn’t think they were deviant?
Oops… I may have said too much…

Shades of Victorian era...........but the same hypocrisies linger. Regards, Robert.
