I agree with ladyM.
Remember one more thing, nothing you do goes unseen, good nor bad, it is the intention behind your act. Intention and truth cannot be hidden just as the act of theft or lie as you are thinking that you are using a superior intellect to take advantage of someone who trusts or doesnt suspect you.
There is nothing you get away with in the physical world, not murder, not stealing, not lieing that the non-physical world has not seen you do. Some learn from their mistakes and some never do. Look at the person serving hard time in prison for theft or robbery. What happened to this middle age man?
Every case is the same. Someone started out small early in life and got away with a lot........................for a while. Then the person got a little more greedier and the rush was more intense of flirting with being caught. How do you choose to learn? At what stage do you choose to learn? Can you do the time of 3 years right now?
You think going to prison is just doing your time. I hear a year in prison can sometimes feel like two and survival is on a day to day basis as long as your willing to stab or kill another inmate for your new prison gang. Do as the gang tells you and youll get increased time. Dont do it and someone in the gang will get you for refusing to follow orders. Misery loves company. You must belong to a gang you know. There are no loners in prison. Why even flirt with that kind of life?
Life will deal you a blow if you dont take subtle hints.
Hold yourself to a higher sense of morality and what it means to be a man with integrity, trust and honesty. That is the type of person most people seek to have in their lives. When you have these virtues people will sense that about you and hold you in high regard.
You should be the kind of man that if I asked you to watch my house and left you the key while I went on vacation that I could trust you. I could trust that you wouldnt ransack every drawer in my house looking for what ever you wanted. I could trust you to the point that you wouldnt even be curious to look.
You should be the type of man that when the clerk at the store unknowingly gives you too much cash back and you catch the mistake that you say something and give the money back.
You should be the type of man that when you find a walllet or purse on the sidewalk that you make sure it gets back to owner with all of its contents.
It doesnt matter what you steal whether it be a tv or a toothbrush. You cant disguise the act in terms of degree. Its the same. Dont be misled by the illusion. Temptation to steal is nothing more than a test of ones character.
