The art of the sneak.

There are times in our life when we place our normal integrity, morals, and just plain common sense to the side for the sake fun. We know that we shouldn't be doing something, we know its wrong, we know its not right, but that doesn't stop us. Is it because we grew up in a country where the pursuit of happiness is a cornerstone?

Sure there are laws out there that make those things illegal, but they aren't enforced unless they affect someone else's pursuit of happiness. And of course we find ways and means to minimally affect their pursuit without them knowing it.

How far do we go in our pursuit of happiness? We develop the art of the sneak. Our language becomes filled with double entendres and innuendo. Rarely will be come right out and speak our deeds or wishes. We come up with reasons and excuses to continue our pursuit, to continue having fun.

Now that we're adults, and have that wonderful word consent, we make our choices to engage in activities that only we can imagine the consequences if they aren't already spelled out for us. Its part of our maturity that allows us to truly give consent. When you know the consequences and you still decide to accept those consequences should your activities become public, you are then a consenting adult. Being an adult means you know and recognize the consequences.

Being a single female with a steady income, confidence in my own self defense, and 99.9% effective products, I know I can have fun. Not only because I minimized the chances of publicity, but also because I know the consequences. The key is, however, to not dwell on those but enjoy the moments and enjoy the risks that you have managed
