Stealing


It's a bit like rape in a way

A personal violation

Intimate intrusion

Totally selfish

Nasty

Unpleasant

And that's just what you can say about it

There is also the feeling of anger

The desire to confront

To challenge

To punish

Hurt even
.
Have revenge

Try another perception of it

Imagine that there are no accidents

Apart from any carelessness or forgetfulness involved

Leave these obvious rationalizations aside

Take it that there was a reason

A personal something for you to learn, to think about

Do it next time someone steals from you

Think about your life

Your behaviour

Somewhere in there is something you need to adjust

Change, modify

Look for it

Surely beats anger over something that has already happened

Let go

Think.
