Okay, to set up my question I need to relay a small story. I work at a fairly large retail store. Well Monday morning I noticed an attractive man of about 30 walking through the store all day. He was in the store all day long, alone, without a buggy or any items. I made eye contact with him several times and he seemed to be no harm , not even the slightest bit threatening so I thought nothing of it. In our store meeting they spoke of a peeping tom, going into the womens bathroom but he got away before any one saw him, still the next day the guy was back walking through the store and I never made any connection, at the end of the day they arrested him, he was the peeping tom. I felt very stupid for being deceived by him. People are always talking about good people, the right person, were I am from. So and so is a good person, he comes from this family or he goes to this church and lots of times , these people arent any better than the next joe. The only way people can be good is to be truthful to theirselves and others right? I can be a murderer but if I am honest about it doesnt that make me more decent than the the guy who is a upstanding citizen, a banker who kills in secret and tells lies to all those around him? This world is so wrapped up in image we have permanently deceived our selves. Will everyone ever see the truth. But maybe I am the one who should wake up and see the truth, we are a selfish virus set out to destroy. AUGHHHH, this is one of my manic days

everytime you reach a conclusion as to the truth, view that conclusion as merely another stepping stone you have landed on, and upon it you perch until another catches your eye and you hop over to that. i assume there is dry land out there somewhere, dunno maybe?

Dear Star - I have found as much deception among women who are above average in the looks department. Women are less likely to be violent criminals, or invasive criminals, but rather seductresses who con and rip off. Perhaps you've had an awakening to your own unconscious assumptions that identifies outer beauty with inner beauty. The cannabalistic serial killer Ted Bundy was depicted by actor Mark Harmon (once voted 'sexiest man alive') to illustrate that a handsome, intelligent man can be a true monster. There are of course combinations of good and evil, and physical beauty can be a vehicle for both. The old addage that one 'cannot judge a book by its cover' holds truth. Cultivation of one's intuition is of great importance to help one discern sickos and psychos. Vibes. 'Test the spirits to see if they are of God,' so a sense of the Holy is important to be familiar with in life. Piety can be faked, Holiness (Wholeness) cannot. Peace.

I just want everone to know that Starboobies' story has a happy ending. I am out of jail now, and breathing the sweet air of freedom once more. Thank god. What is the world coming to when the simple joy of staring up a woman's skirt becomes a stint in the Big House with Bubba? BTW, I noticed you used the word "attractive" to describe my appearance, SB. You may be interested to know that I am available and willing to become a one-skirt guy for the right kind of lucky lady...
