The People In Your Life Are Like

You Can Tell A Lot About What A Man Lacks By Watching What He Is Cynical About, And Many Of Us Are Cynical About Love.

The Answer Doesn't Lie In Learning How To Protect Ourselves From Life-it Lies In Learning How To Become Strong Enough To Let A Bit More Of It In.

Perhaps The Old View Of 'me Breadwinner, You Hausfrau' Worked For Our Grandparents, When People Obligingly Popped Off Before Boring Each Other To Death, But It Won't Work Any Longer Because We Are Living Too Long And Divorce Is Needed Today To Do What Death Acomplished More Economically Before.

The Dream Of Romantic Love Is Taken More Seriously In North America Than It Is Anywhere Else In The World, Which Is Why We Believe In Fidelity And Why We Believe In Infidelity As Well. It Is Also, Of Course, What Makes Our Divorce Rate As High As It Is. Falling In Love At First Sight And Instant Gratification Are Part Of The World In Which We Live, So There Are People Who Believe Adamantly In Fidelity. They Just Don't Believe In It For Long.

Our Strength Is In Our Dreams, And Those Who Do Not Dare To Dream Damn Themselves.
