The Proposal

The sun-kissed the waters in warm, flirty tones. The churning sea returned the kiss with as much fervor, reflecting the purple-burgundy complexion of her lover. The sun was withdrawing its warmth from the corners of the earth as she prepared to take a snooze. The wind, in defiance of the sun, picked up her dance, ruffling the trees clothing the bank of the seas. It wasn't a surprise when the wind playfully lifted her skirts. She twirled and twirled, laughing, basking in the slowly cooling dance of the wind and the ebbing heat of the sun. She was happy!

So...have you taken time out to notice the behaviors of kids today? Do you see that the methods with which kids are raised now are far far different from how we were raised? And does the blatant disrespect from kids give you the chills as it does me? I'm at that point where I wish we could go back in time, if for nothing else but the discipline that our parents instilled in us.

Sex...And How Our Parents Lied to Us

Do you remember that conversation you had with your parents about sex? It was probably on that day when you had your very first menstruation. Or maybe, that day when your neighbor's daughter came home pregnant and the entire street got a free show. Either way, something must have triggered the talk. Now, it didn't matter if you were as close to your parents as peas in a pod or had a run-away-to-my-room-as-soon-as-daddy-shows-up attitude. What mattered was that, if you had a conversation about sex with your parents, it most definitely must have been awkward!
