it's not always as it seems...

Many things in life are not what they appear.

We often enter into situations that look appealing, desirous, and harmless...
But once we have had an opportunity to examine the true surroundings we find ourselves in...

We see that what was alluring to us from a distance, is nothing more than destructive, unwanted ugliness.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is fair, whatever is pure, whatever is acceptable, whatever is commendable, if there is anything of excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy-keep thinking about these things. {Philippians 4:8}
