EVIL IS AS EVIL DOES 10-13-09
Evil is as Evil does. Thoughts are just that.... thoughts. Deeds are deeds. A thought is not a deed unless it is carried out.
I am a good person; I know that for a fact.
BUUUUT...........it doesn't mean I always do good things.
Still, most of my crimes are altruistic. I risked my entire sanity the other day as I left Sam's Club/Costco, etc.
I was walking back to my truck and parked next to me was a BEEAAuuutiful Porch convertible, Black; doe skin interior, all leather and polished wood.
16 inches away from me was an 800.00 Dollar Ipod, resting peacefully and securely in its little Ipod holder mounted to the dash. SIXTEEN INCHES.
I got in my truck and got out of my truck. Again, I got in my truck and out of my truck.
My Godchild, K had just had her Ipod stolen.
So, I figured *** for Tat".
Being as stupid as I can be (on record), I went for it. The car alarm raised me higher than my truck. Panicked, I sped out of the parking lot and called my therapist. In a frantic voice, I disillusioned "OH, My God! I've just committed murder!!!” Or at least that's how it felt.
My neighbor was swimming in my cheap above ground pool when I got home.
She asked a simple question: "Well, Hmmmmm....did you take the Ipod from the vehicle?"
Now this puts a completely different spin on my sin.
"Uh, noooooo, uuuhhh, I was just looking at it!"
I couldn’t believe how easy it was to change my view. But she was right, I hadn't committed theft, I almost did. And I'm the kind of person that would chase someone down in a parking lot to return his unknown, dropped, wallet.
This one always get my head spinning: …”Even though I walk In the SHADOW of the Valley of Death”….
Uh, wait a tic. The SHADOW of a bee can not sting you. The SHADOW of a cat can not scratch you. The SHADOW of a snake can not bite you.
What the fuuuh? I kind of get it. Our brains are weird. Our thoughts are strange. Thank God for that...most of the time....
Love, Susan
PS: But I'm still kind of ****** at the arrogant ******* who so blatantly demonstrated how rich he was.
