Hello Friends,
My brother and I share a trait that causes us to laugh at ourselves: As we are eating a meal we begin to plan what our next meal would be (LOL).
The real inspiration for this entry however is we humans seem to relish something to look forward to. We always hope that the results are up to our expectations. We can't wait for things like graduation, a party, a vacation, a trip perhaps a new relationship. I always looked forward to making love (sex) and it usually was good, sometimes fair or disappointing, or even great. If variety is "the spice of life" in this case I prefer the quality to be on the upper end of the positive scale. Sex is more than the fulfillment of lust, the desire to procreate or experience pleasure.
Sex is part of a natural process and function that is related to good physical and mental health. Lovemaking emphasizes emotional health also.
I can do without this only for so long then things begin to happen to me: First I grow anxious then irritable then angry. If I use my brain to rationalize my situation I come to terms with the absence of all the above and adapt so I do not drive myself crazy. I hope it isn't too late.
