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...
Those of you who know me personally might be aware that I don't use the word "old". I don't think that people should be referred to with a word like old and I believe that as we live longer lives we are wiser and that we can be looked upon as "seasoned". For me the word seasoned means that we have lived a good life and that we have gone from one season to another experiencing life and the many ups and downs of it. I don't see the word old as one that honors any human being for their acquisition of wisdom and the things they have been able to overcome. I for one consider myself a seasoned man not an "old man". There are so many meanings to the word old but the one that I am not in agreement with is the connotation that older is less than and younger is more important. Unfortunately we live in a world where youth is celebrated and seasoned people are looked down on. The thought is that younger people are more attractive or that they are m...
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....
