When is Lust a Must??

Never!! Is the only correct answer...

Much like the song by Johnny Cash, " Ring of Fire "
I fell into a "Burning Ring of Fire " this week; when I became over zealous on my views of what is proper and / or suitable for a woman to wear in public...

It started this way; I came across some swim suits advertised on one of the major Email / News web sites... I saw some that would be of interest a male; like myself... I then copied and posted a couple of these provocative style swimsuits on to one of the Blogs I write... Well it not only got attention; but received several replies; about how men view such things...

Well I defended myself; until in a reply: One comment came from a fine Lady; Telling me that this was not a good example for our young girls and women... It sent the wrong message, since as she put it; in so many words.. [ That growing up she, was taught that her body should be some what of a mystery to the male... Not just displayed; out there for all the world, mainly men to view... Because in the grand scheme of things; the sexual desire of the male is peaked by the mystery and allure of the woman; in order to attract a mate... ]

If there were not any sexual desires on the part of people; I doubt that there would be any reproduction... HUH!!
This so true; because the whole theme of beauty in the Nature is for the purpose of reproduction... The beauty of the flower attract the bees which pollinate, and so forth in the world...

Therefore, I confessed in a reply; that I had fallen into a moment of lust and self desire when I posted remarks and photos; which were not in the best interest of either myself or women in general... Since I have several young Grandaughters, I have come to agree with this fine Lady; that I was wrong and will try to be more considerate in the future...

So you see I am not perfect nor do I know everything yet!! This is just a personal appeal that demonstrates that; we should all try to live our lives in a manner that does not bring shame or discomfort to others... It should be one of our purposes in life; that is to be a friend and benefactor to those we meet on our pathway of life...

May we always try to keep our lust and desires in check so as to not embarrass or exploit others!!
