 NO SEX TONIGHT!

I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so 
much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have 
never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart. 


FOR EXAMPLE: One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into 
bed. 


Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says "I don't feel 
like it, I just want you to hold me." 


I said "WHAT??!! What was that?!" 


So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear... 
"You're just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me 
to satisfy your physical needs as a man." She responded to my puzzled look 
by saying, "Can't you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in 
the bedroom?" 


Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep. 


The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with 
her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big 
unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on 
several different very expensive outfits. She couldn't decide which one to 
take so I told her we'd just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to 
compliment her new clothes, so I said lets get a pair for each outfit. We 
went onto the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of diamond 
earrings. Let me tell you...she was so excited. She must have thought I was 
one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because 
she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn't even know how to play 
tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I said, "That's fine, honey." 
She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement. 
Smiling with excited anticipation she finally said, "I think this is all 
dear, let's go to the cashier." 


I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, "No honey, I don't feel 
like it." 


Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled 
WHAT?" 


I then said "honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You're 
just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy 
your shopping needs as a woman." And just when she had this look like she 
was going to kill me, I added, "Why can't you just love me for who I am and 
not for the things I buy you?" 


Apparently I'm not having sex tonight either.

think of the trees

"Just think of the trees:

They let the birds

Perch and fly,

With no intention

To call them

When they come

And no longing

For their return

When they fly

Away.

If people’s hearts

Could be like

Trees,

They would not be

Off the Way."

here and now

"poate intr-o zi..." sa fie doar un alt mode de a spune "niciodata"?

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short,
The music won’t last.
Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask "How are you?"
     Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores running
      through your head?
You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.
Ever told your child, "We’ll do it tomorrow?"
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time to call and say "Hi?"
You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift…
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before your song is over.
