Moral of my story is this, I will not invest in what I don’t value and I will prioritize what is important, and the least importance  to the end or have nothing to with it at all. And that’s how people deal with each other to include myself.  We say that we’re fair but our fairness is subjective to people, circumstances, situations, titles, positions, money, power and respect. But who am I ? I’m just a Man whose name isn’t big enough, yet.

“For God shows no partiality [no arbitrary favoritism; with Him one person is not more important than another].”

Romans 2:11 AMP

This is my introspection. 

Nothing will remain committed, connected nor grow from an unstable and disconnected foundation. 

"The temptation of the ITCH and the sinful action of the SCRATCH is nothing to overlook.  None of us are above being tempted! But all will be and have been given a way out, to keep us from a habitual life of sinning and to live in the Joy of the Lord our God. "

“No dog scratches without an itch” that means that something had to cause that itch, for the dog to scratch. That itch can be any person, place, or thing.  But! beyond a shadow of a doubt, it will function under the prognoses of Lust of the flesh, Lust of eyes, and the Pride of Life.
