Do not tempt

20251014

After the business took off

I thought about how offensive it is

To ask women to not tempt men with nakedness

Is to tempt women with a sweet dessert

Or a wine tasting to an alcoholic

Or a discounted sale to a shop-oholic

Be kind

Do not tempt others to sin

Just as you do not want to be tempted to sin

Their choice to act to sin

Your choice to act to tempt

*snatched* short cartoon
Young boy in loving family at Grandpa's farm
Like to skip rocks
Signing papers for moving to New home
Winter fun with parents
Mom sick
Dies on stormy Valentine's day
That struck a tree on the new house garage
Neighbor calls with news

They drive to New house next day to see damage
Drives past young girl in heart shirt
loves shirt with big heart on it
Wears everywhere
Especially during rock collecting
Gets compliments on it
Laundry day anxiously awaits it from dryer

Thru summer sad skip rocks
Happy rock collecting
Wins rock skip competition with best rock
  Trained for a long time
  Found his perfect skipping stone
  But hard to find
  With hole in the middle
  Wears around as necklace
  Used that rock to win competition
Loses the cornerstone of rock collection series from curious new puppy
  Competes in art award at fair

*Snatched* spiritual battle
When two kids want the same rock
For different reason
Logical for what they like
But neither rightfully own **

Garage fixed over summer
Moved in during cold sweat weather fall
Kids met
Hit it off all thru winter

As Valentine's day comes back around
He boy gets more sad
They walk along beach collecting rocks
Boy happily finds
