Coach Elliott : dont even try it: I am alone at home at two am so I hear a bing on my door and realize that the alarm on the pad had been tampered with. I talk on the phone...
I am uncertain as to how many of my readers know what I mean about putting your skirt over your head. All I know is that my sister once said it and I think I heard it in a movie once. I do know that in the movie "Mermaids" Cher who played the mom had some great lines about being a woman and just having a good time with life. In one of those what should be famous lines Cher's daughter played by Winnona Ryder says: "Don't you think yoiiu are too old for that dress?"to which Cher responds with: "Don't be silly Charlotte, a woman is never too old". In another part there is a stunning young man waiting on their porch to welcome them to the country area where they moved and upon setting eyes on him Winnona Ryder who is Charlotte is mezmerized by him. Cher suddenly turns around and says: "too bad your hell bent on becoming a nun". To say that Cher truly pulls the dress over her head is really minimizing her role in this movie that I wo...
Perhaps because I have only been in love once I should not have an opinion about love. Still I see love so many times as some illusion, some stuff people make up, even in bad situations. We often times make love into something that fits in our own imagination as love and if it is not really love we make it seem like it it by lying about it and fantasizing about what it is not. Love is often an illusion and for some so elusive that it is a serious problem. The woman whose husband bullies her and says sarcastic things about her wants to believe that her husband loves her and that he is just not well, poor thing. She makes excuses for him and for his bad behavior. There are many people in what is an illusion of a partnership when in fact they are not in one. On the contrary they are in peril. They believe they will somehow resolve the issues that will always be present in their relationship and the truth is that it is not going to get any better....
I have been married both to a woman and a man for about the same amount of time: ten years. What stands out for me is that I love the yin yang that is a part of being with the opposite sex. Where I was hard or rustic my wife was soft and refined. There were many times when instead of confrontation (the experience I had with men I had been with) she was collaborative. There was always an intention to be helpful and giving and it showed every day of the week in her actions and in her verbal loving supportive thoughts, which was rarely the case with the various males I experienced. Although it was a famous man, television host and author on how women think, Steve Harvey was in fact the person who made the statement "You can't outgive a woman. His research about women has been one of the most respected and his book has been on the best seller list and for good reason. If you watch his talk show Steve is on a mission to get men to understand how women feel...
