"It's an occasional indulgence that does not control me" I say in a dismissive tone.
Setting it aside for a time feels right. It allows me to test myself and be at peace with who I am.
Indulging whenever there is a whim is to be like a child. Rub my beard and remember that I am a man.
Seeing the world differently when the lens of my desire is removed is a refreshing sight.
Eventually savoring it when it is enjoyed in its proper place is a hopeful aspiration.
