The sign

I placed a sign near the bike rack from which my bicycle light was stolen. In brief, it gifts the item to who ever took it and releases them from the energetic bonds of "thief". It also wishes them a Merry Christmas. I wonder how pure my goal with this sign really is. Do I truly desire to give them the light or am I hoping to provoke a guilt response and get them to give it back. Can it be both? Perhaps it is neither. Perhaps it is the only thing I can do after feeling violated in this manner. Perhaps it is just a defense mechanism. Who can say?
