I am very confident that 99.9% of the people who read this post would agree that buying sushi from Kroger is always going to be a bad choice. Yet, it couldn't be helped. Hunger pains tore at my stomach as I considered Kroger brand sushi to a Kroger chicken salad sandwich. (While, admittedly, chicken salad sandwiches are also a questionable choice, once it is compared to Kroger sushi, chicken salad should win.)
However, all sense aside, standing at the supermarket, I WANTED the California roll--it was overwhelmingly desirable at the moment. But the heart is deceitful.
Lest I stray from my point: I chose to buy California rolls for my meager lunch even though, to the sane mind, this was a bad move. I gave in because I could only think about what I desired. I did not consider the wisdom or quality of the choice. I was hasty.
The California rolls tasted like paper and I could barely finish them.
This is a metaphor to how sin works in our lives: it blinds us and we end up choosing Kroger sushi--something that NEVER satisfies and always causes regret later.
I did the same thing once.
