Focus

There is a popular product heavily advertised during late night television called Focus Factor. I've seen the product on the shelves of Wal-Mart.

Early in my marriage, I knew that I would have to change my focus on occasion to avoid conflict. While walking a mall in California with my wife, I would intentionally keep my eyes fixed about 6-8 feet in front of my path, looking at the floor. The very moment I lifted my gaze, a gorgeous female passed by. I quickly looked back at the floor, but it was too late. I was busted. I knew better than to look up, especially in that particular mall.

It is easy to walk without focus, without intention, to take the direction that seem most fitting to the eyes. Pick up this magazine, watch that show. So many decisions are made based on emotion, which is fed by the intellect, which is fed by who knows what. So then, where should you fix your eyes? There is only one person that I can fix my eyes on and not loose focus.
