Temptations come in many different shapes and sizes and honestly we are not immune to all of it. When your tryint to quit smoking and you see frinds just lighting up and all resolutions to quit just goes out the window. And it's not a 21st century thing either, temptation has been around for millions of years. A great example would be eve. She was tempted to eat the apple of knowledge, to know emotions and to learn. Tempted to know a world beyond the perks that were given to her. Tempted by an apple, how can something so innocent be so alluring?
On the topic of apples, wasnt snow white poisoned by an apple? Tempted by the succulent and lush red apple. The colour itself is seductive, can you not be tempted? I guess by biting the apple it was a sort of freedom known on by the bold. And in the end all went well right? Snow white got her prince and Eve was the mother of each any everyone of us.
Go on take a bite, risk it.The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself. Oscar Wilde.
I guess, every now and then you have to give in to temptation, bite a piece of the apple and see what happens? Whats the worse that can happen? Fan that hidden fire, so that it burns true.
