Lessons in Life II

Bullshit!!!!

If he is not the "love of your life," do both of you a favor and leave, completely. He will be hurt but, he can get over it with a beer and a comely smile.

And then, guilt free, you can move your selfish ass on to the next victim.
They have an open relationship, meaning she eats a lot of hotdogs. She is known for that and her hubby, (will smith) has to deal with it. They say that’s why he flipped out at the grammys(?) show and slapped Chris rock. 😂 I don’t see how any man can be married and put up with his wife attending sausage parties 😅

The definition of "Marriage in most states is "exclusive access and/for consensual sex with the one partner."

Jus' sayin.
 
The Valuable Time of Maturity
I counted my years and discovered that I have
less time to live going forward than I have lived until now.
I have more past than future.
I feel like the child who received a bowl of candies.
The first ones, he ate ungracious, but when he realized there were only a few left, he began to relish and enjoy each one.
I do not have time to deal with mediocrity.
I am bothered by the envious ones who want all that others have, but don’t want to do the work.
I do not have time to manage the sensitivities of people who despite their chronological age, are immature.
My time has become scarce to discuss labels,
I want the essence, my soul is in a hurry…
Not many candies in the bowl…
I want to live close to human people,
very human, who laugh of their own stumbles,
and who do not run away from their responsibilities .
And who only want to walk on the side of truth
and honesty.
The essential is what makes life worthwhile.
I want to surround myself with people, who know how to touch the hearts of people…
People to whom the hard knocks of life,
taught them to grow with softness in their soul.
Yes …. I am in a hurry … to live with intensity,
that only maturity can bring.
I intend not to waste any part of the goodies
I have left …they are far too exquisite.
My goal is to arrive at the end satisfied,and at peace, with my loved ones and my conscience.
I hope that your goal is the same,
because either way you will get there too .. ”

A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a Jeep I bought many years ago. It is pretty old now. But before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot downtown and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer you for it.”

The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said, “They offered me $1,000 because they said it looks pretty worn out.”

The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.” The daughter went to the pawn shop, returned to her father and said,”The pawn shop offered only $100 because it is an old Jeep.”

The father asked his daughter to go to a Jeep club now and show them the Jeep. The daughter then took the Jeep to the club, returned and told her father,” Some people in the club offered $100,000 for it because “it's an iconic Jeep and sought by many collectors.”

Now the father said this to his daughter, “The right place values you the right way,” If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means you are in the wrong place. Those who know your value are those who appreciate you......Never stay in a place where no one sees your value.

“Sex,” I was pretty sure, meant whether you were a boy or girl, and “sin” made Tante Jans very angry, but what the two together meant I could not imagine. And so, seated next to Father in the train compartment, I suddenly asked, “Father, what is sexsin?”

He turned to look at me, as he always did when answering a question, but to my surprise he said nothing. At last he stood up, lifted his traveling case from the rack over our heads, and set it on the floor.

“Will you carry it off the train, Corrie?” he said.

I stood up and tugged at it. It was crammed with the watches and spare parts he had purchased that morning.

“It’s too heavy,” I said.

“Yes,” he said. “And it would be a pretty poor father who would ask his little girl to carry such a load. It’s the same way, Corrie, with knowledge. Some knowledge is too heavy for children. When you are older and stronger you can bear it. For now you must trust me to carry it for you.”

- from The Hiding Place: The Story of Corrie Ten Boom

We are asking our children to carry loads that are way too heavy for them. They should not be forced, as children, to see and feel the world through the lens of adults. Innocence is worth protecting and worth fighting for. We need to do our part as teachers, parents and caregivers to carry certain things for them until they are old enough to bear the load.
