THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT



        Man has shades of grey. It's soul has a greedy side, where desires are plenty and the eagerness to fulfill those aspirations is massive! The hungry inside of the human yearns for fascinating things, and this hunger is endless. 
no matter if the fruit is forbidden, the eagerness of engulfing never dies. even if we know that it should not be obtained by us, the appealing attraction is so huge that our desire pulls us to it.
 And this appetite is not new. This is a part of human nature, a part of our existence and has been in us since the time of Adam and Eve.


"Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die"
It was a direct command by Him. 
He clearly forbidden-ed Adam form laying his hands on it.
They willfully committed the sin, it was a direct disrespect to God. but despite the fact they could not overcome their lust. their was no shortage of food. He gave them the consent to exploit all the trees of the garden except one. Yet, they could not content themselves. They disobeyed Him for a single fruit!


there is always an inquisitive side of us that asks us, " why? why out of everything, that thing is forbidden. it must be something better. find out!" 
and within no time we find ourselves strangely attracted towards it!


everybody knows smoking is injurious, but today many teenagers are exposed to it! why? they do it themselves. its their forbidden fruit! forbidden by parents but urged by desires. 
many married people have extra-marital affairs even though they know they are deceiving their spouse. they choose to do this sin because its their lust for the forbidden fruit.


Can we hold us back? is our will stronger than our desires ? NO. we easily get swayed in the moment.
I have still not been successful in penning down a solution....

"the forbidden fruit unleashes our greed and our lust 
compels us to willfully commit a sin
its paves the path to doom!"
