Together we agree that there are few tableaus more pathetic than a woman poring over a plethora of self-help books, while in a small café across town her husband is sharing a bottle of Pouilly-Fuissé and fettucini Alfredo with a beautiful woman, fondling her fishnet knee and making careful plans to escape his life. ↗

Kissing - and I mean like, yummy, smacking kissing - is the most delicious, most beautiful and passionate thing that two people can do, bar none. Better than sex, hands down. ↗

Children, as persons, are entitled to the greatest respect. Children are given to us as free-flying souls, but then we clip their wings like we domesticate the wild mallard.

They were alike, and yet they were totally opposite in the way they viewed the world. He viewed it as it was. It was a dark place, always holding itself into the shadows. She saw the beauty that no one else could ever have seen in the darkness. It was to be said that she both saved and destroyed him. She was the essence of him and yet she, beautiful sad eyed angel that she was, was also his destruction all at the same time. He could be a downright wretch of a man, yet she took it into herself, and never said a word, but to love him. It was the love that broke him. ↗
